Lenworth McIntosh’s *Come When Mi Call Yu* imagines a Black commune in a lush rural valley awaiting a powerful storm. Drawing on his Jamaican heritage, animation, and the Caribbean Nine Nights tradition, McIntosh depicts everyday life intertwined with ancestral spirits. Through communal meals, music, work, and celebration, the paintings explore memory, spirituality, the Black diaspora, and the enduring strength of collective connection. The paintings imagine a Black commune in a verdant rural valley awaiting an approaching storm. Drawing on his Jamaican heritage and the visual language of animation, McIntosh fuses spiritual and living planes into a single ecosystem: ghostlike presences guide people at work, a man tends pots of soup, church women gather in radiant chorus. Invoking the Caribbean Nine Nights wake tradition, he renders spirits and the living dissolving together into the clouds in unrestrained dance.
