"Tabanca" Fine Art Print

Where longing becomes light.

Drifting between water and sky, "Tabanca" Fine Art Print is a portrait suspended in feeling, a visual expression of that bittersweet ache for something beautiful that’s passed.

Inspired by the Trinidadian concept of Tabanca, a deep, soulful longing that lingers when love or beauty slips just out of reach, this 16 x 20 fine art print invites you into a liminal space. A space where memory, emotion, and possibility quietly intertwine.

The portrait features a Black woman with a serene, contemplative expression, enveloped in layered textures of deep, watery blues. Her bold silhouette contrasts against an abstract background that evokes both ocean currents and sky-bound clouds, creating the sense that she is both submerged and floating, rooted and free.

Artist Tamara Tashna designed this piece to feel weightless and profound. Tabanca captures that in-between moment we rarely name: when what was still lingers, and what could be starts to take shape.
