MARCIA BROWN ART

Art, Heritage & Liberation

I’m Marcia Brown, a Leeds-based visual artist working across painting, textiles and mixed media.

Rooted in my Jamaican ancestry, Rastafarian faith and connection to Roots Reggae, my work explores the histories, identities and lived experiences of the Black diaspora.

Through figurative imagery, layered surfaces and cultural symbols, I bring personal stories and collective memory into conversation—honouring ancestral connections, resilience and the continuing struggle for liberation.
