Dancing in the Street by Paul Dash
Dancing in the Street is a book dedicated to and exploring the career of Paul Dash, a Barbados-born artist. Edited by Cameron Amiri and with texts by Paul Dash, Miranda Matthews, Habda Rashid and Allison Thompson, this new publication coincides with an exhibition of the same title, shown at Felix & Spear, a gallery in West London.
It celebrates Dash’s enduring commitment to art, education, and the representation of diasporic experience. A key member of the Caribbean Artists Movement, Dash’s work traces scenes of everyday life and communal celebration with rhythmic energy and deep cultural resonance. His compositions evoke the movement, colour, and ritual of social gatherings—spaces where histories of migration and belonging find joyful expression.
