About the work
This image captures the moment at which artist Ain Bailey arrives at the road where her mother’s family once lived in Kingston, Jamaica. The journey to this site during her first ever trip to the island is the subject of her new work presented in the exhibition: 5C Jacques Road: Part One (2026). Conceived as a travelogue, and captured with an energised immediacy on her iPhone, the single-channel video takes audiences with the artist on her voyage of discovery, accompanied by a new composition featuring field recordings collected en route.
