nu HERITAGE presents an overview of recent photographs by Janice Reid, whose art practice comprises collaborative portraiture that explores the Caribbean diaspora perspective. These compositions emphasize Reid’s introspective approach to the blending of influences that shape her cultural heritage–a heritage that melds family roots in Jamaica with her upbringing in Toronto.

The resulting photographs manifest Reid’s responses to personal observations and reflections that are revealed as she navigates the complexities of identity. Through these artworks, Reid is reshaping a cultural narrative to communicate the nuance and interplay of historical influences alongside contemporary personal experiences.
