Lenworth McIntosh’s Coming Back Late (2024) depicts a house at night, its porch softly illuminated by the warm, yellow-orange glow of tungsten lights. Reflecting on the house he lived in growing up in Jamaica, McIntosh has a strong visual memory of returning home a party down at the community store or from spending time with neighbors. The house “welcomed the community.” Coming Back Late feels like six-year-old me coming back from a party down at the shop or returning from the neighbor's yard.”
