Trinidad-born artist Brittany “Brigitte” Davis is celebrating a career milestone as her artwork graces a billboard in the iconic Times Square billboard in New York City. The 26-year-old shared her excitement on social media, capturing the moment standing across the street from the towering display.
Her featured piece, a vibrant homage to her Caribbean heritage and culture, employs expressive color blocking against a cool backdrop. Warm tones of red, orange, and yellow contrast against neutral browns, while complementary blue and orange hues infuse the artwork with additional vibrancy, symbolizing Trinidad and Tobago’s rich cultural tapestry.

Now based in New York, Davis, who hails from the village of Los Bajos in South Trinidad, specializes in painting, design, sculpture, and printmaking, with a thematic focus on vulnerability and fantasy.
In December 2023, at the age of 25, Davis had her first solo show after winning the Entire Group Show Art Competition in the Art Gallery at ‘The Greenpoint Gallery’.
Davis, a graduate of the Fashion Institute of Technology, expressed gratitude to ArtSpace Innovations for the opportunity to showcase her work in such a prominent location. Through innovative initiatives like ArtSpace, artists gain exposure on unconventional platforms, from digital billboards to underground train stations, reaching wider audiences and leaving a lasting impact on the art world.
