How has the geography of the Caribbean Islands affected their art?
i need help my project its due tomorrow and i need like 800 words. But right now i only have less than 350…So please help!
I think the vibrant colours common in nature in the Caribbean have led to Caribbean people choosing more bright of vivid colours sometimes in their costumes (at Carnival) or in the appearance of their homes. If you look at traditional homes in America or Europe they tended to be more bland…. Something like a white with black trim. Or Yellow with black or white trim. Or like greenish in colour or just natrual wood colour but in the Caribbean islands, the colours are all kinds of hues of like pink, and green, or blue, or so on… Brightly coloured rooftops even etc. Only really in the last 10-15 years or so have I really seen some US homes take-on this really colourful look.
