Clap for Queens of Reggae | United States

My initial inspiration was sparked by Mikayla “Koffee” Simpson winning the 2020 Grammy Award for Best Reggae album, making her the first woman to take home that award since the category was added in 1985.

Koffee’s win comes at a time just as female reggae artists are rising in popularity internationally, bucking the trend of being overshadowed by their male counterparts.

Before designing this poster, I had very little knowledge about reggae music. During my research, I discovered so many talented women, like Etana, Queen Ifrica, Grace Jones, Rihanna, Lady Saw, Lila Ike, Shenseea, Sister Nancy, Jah9, Jane Macgizmo, and many others. I would put them all on my poster if I could.

Their music inspired me to create “Clap for Queens of Reggae,” a colorful homage to all female reggae artists. The goddess of music is at the center, wearing the traditional colors of Jamaica. She watches over the two women who represent traditional and modern reggae. They have come a long way, but there is still much work to do.

With this poster, I hope to send a message of awareness, hope, and inspiration while also celebrating the contributions that reggae music has brought to the world.

Reggae moves us | Finland

While getting to know reggae better I discovered Desmond Dekker’s song called Israelites, I fell in love with the song. Great music doesn’t age. Israel, and Africa, are important to Rastafarians and reggae so I decided to paint this gorgeous bird, a hoopoe, Israel’s national bird. (I didn’t draw the Jamaican’s hummingbird because somebody already did it.) Reggae can make you to fly over the oceans just to enjoy the music the fullest on its birthplace, Jamaica.

The Reggae dancing | China

Reggae Sun | United States

This heartwarming atmospheric poster is another way I’m exploring the Reggae phenomenon. The backdrop is the beginning of 80s – me sitting in a sunny living room in my birth town Riga, being 3 years old, playing with the swedish cubes, retro music on the background. I’m happy! I love this design, brings me back to that moment.

The Beat of the Lion’s Mind and Heart | Philippines

I wanna show the strength, kingship and pride of being African by representing a Lion with a music boom box and a headset represent their love on music and style with a touch of a sunglasses representing the calming and cool vibes of their music. I got the title from showing the lion’s head which is shape of a heart while the boombox and the headset shows the beat of the heart like a stethoscope where you hear the heart beat of a person.

Reggae is Love | Bolivia
