Barrington’s edition takes its starting point from a group of paintings of hibiscus flowers. Barrington has returned to this motif as a way to depict notions of intimacy and migration having left Grenada to join his mother in Brooklyn when he was 8 years old. The flowers are painted with oil acrylic enamel paints and sit on flat spray-painted solid colors referencing sign paintings common on beaches of the Caribbean.
