‘A post-independence American/English-educated Christian Indian Trinidadian West Indian Creole male artist’. This is how Steve Ouditt describes himself in a playful and poignant comment on the complexities of diasporan identities which have become so resonant in the so-called post-modern world.

Profoundly aware of the limitations of language, Ouditt’s writings and art navigate the difficult terrain between the visual and the verbal, between the poetic and the prosaic. Creole in-site collects together the artist’s writings for the first time, alongside images of his work.
