Simon Benjamin is a Jamaican-born artist whose work drifts along the shoreline of history. He uses film, objects, and layered images to probe how the Caribbean has been seen, sold, and misunderstood. His pieces feel like tides carrying memory—fragments of labor, migration, and myth—reshaped into something quiet, sharp, and deeply human.
