Strachan’s take on Marcus Garvey’s Black Star Line and the legacy of Pan-Africanism

For this exhibition, Tavares Strachan (born 1979) was inspired by the life and work of activist Marcus Garvey. Drawing on influences that span from music to sports and culture and science, Strachan applies a dub aesthetic within his practice to create works that invert the transatlantic story.
