This painting is inspired by my Poem titled: Time in Stasis on a Sleepless Night (or For the Love of Art and Men) The thinning was gradual. Days passed and color slowly drained away. The tick of clock grew distant, and finally, Faded into nothingness. Life was locked in a holding pattern With moments of compulsory bliss, Punctuated by wakeful reminders of you, Gone. I’d catch your eye from across the room. These chance encounters fragmented, derailed, Me. Strong women laid to waste, contemplated calcification and madness. The poetry then, were songs of loss and hope. I couldn't see you. And the years passed by. We wear the mask we hope they want to see. We live, love, laugh, happy, leave. But gods do wake and worlds collide and fall. Then, I couldn't stay away. Unglued, in tune, resplendent in bloom, And there’s talk of genius and revolutions in the room, And beauty. But Loki’s been busy in this fight. Time in stasis on a sleepless night. I am waiting. -October 4, 2014 (c) Lattecha Willocks

Jamaica
Born in Montego Bay, Jamaica in 1979, Lattecha Willocks’ artistic career began in 2001 when she left home for Vienna, where she lived for a year exploring her wide range of creative interests. This is where she first taught herself the variety of skills needed to succeed as an artist. She has since traveled to nine different countries on this pursuit, and returned home to Jamaica to set up shop in Negril, where her art studio is currently located. As an artist, her work is influenced by her travels, her experience in the hospitality industry, and her Rastafarian roots. She creates in order to share her roots, culture and dreams with the world. Lattecha’s paintings are bright, feminine explorations of life on the island. Rather than focus on the darkness in life as so many artists tend to do, she chooses to paint with the intention of bringing more splendor, hope, and light back into the world. Inspired by all the powerful women in her life—including her mother, grandmother, and sister—she frequently paints the female form with an eye for its diverse beauty and strength. Her work aims to inspire others to see just how much magnificence there is in the quiet moments of every single day, while drawing attention to all the positives we tend to miss when the chaos of life takes over.
