On the weekend that Jamaica celebrates its 54th year of independence, Nadine Walker  invites you to the soft launch of her first book, ‘Illustrated Jamaican Proverbs:  Volume One’. With selected illustrations from the book being exhibited, it will be  Nadine’s first  solo exhibition in two years.

At a time when heritage, identity and belonging are the topic of conversation in the UK, Nadine’s picture book takes its inspiration from her Jamaican heritage and contemporary life in England. Through the illustration of these Jamaican proverbs the book seeks to engage families and communities of all cultures in dialogue, in celebrating our similarities and differences.
