About thebookmann

Since 1997, Richard Bolai and Adele Todd have been photographing wall paintings, architecture, posters, typography, street graffiti and other kitsch based works in the environment that normally goes unnoticed, but thrives in plain sight in Trinidad and Tobago. The focus is primarily on Art to give readers a partial vignette into the popular culture seen throughout the small island in the Caribbean. A book, The Trinidad Aesthetic is planned from all of the research.
