Tonique is a London-based painter, originally from Jamaica. She studied BA Interior & Spatial Design and MA Fine Art: Painting at the University of Arts London. Her work explores the changing nature of materials over time, drawing inspiration from her day-to-day life in London and her home, Jamaica.
She often works in series, painting from her own photography. As a film enthusiast, she loves incorporating cinematic elements into her work, playing with different compositions and camera angles.
Tonique is currently working on a Repair Shop series that’s unfolding through collections. The series as a whole represents her self, her family and where she’s from.
