I dreamt of this painting, I heard She was coming. Feeling so inspired that I awakened from my sleep to bring my vision to life on canvas. This image represents the religious practices embraced by the close-knit community of Spiritual Baptists.
The Spiritual Baptists, also known as the Shouter Baptists, combine Christian beliefs with African rituals, incorporating drumming, chanting and dance. This unique fusion of religious practices showcases the rich cultural heritage of Trinidad and Tobago. The Spiritual Baptists stand out as a distinctive and vibrant religious community in the Caribbean.
When they heard that ‘She’, their sister and friend, was coming, they all made sure to attend this illustrious and spiritual event.
