Another feature from the Jamaica Biennial 2017 archives.

Di-Andre Caprice Davis was born in Kingston, Jamaica, and is a self-described experimental artist. In 2016, she completed an artist’s residency at Bluecoat, a contemporary arts centre in Liverpool, England. Her work has been featured in a number of art shows including Jamaica Biennial 2014, Young Talent 2015, Digital (2016) and Kingston, Part 1: The City and Art (2016) at the National Gallery of Jamaica. Additionally, it was featured in Jamaican Pulse: Art and Politics from Jamaica and the Diaspora, which was held in 2016 at the Royal West of England Academy in Bristol, United Kingdom. Davis has been inspired by the relationship between mathematics, science and technology, and how these can be manipulated to inform how the human brain perceives, processes and interprets visual imagery. She is based in Kingston.
