About the Author:
Monica DaSilva, a self-taught photographer with an instinctual passion for the film, has photographed and documented Jamaican dance and theatre for over twenty five years.

Her work gives insight into the mystery of the dancers and choreography in each ensemble.

DaSilva's work has been printed in over 20 different publications in Jamaica, including the Best of Skywritings, Jamaica Pictorial, Evon Blake's Beautiful Jamaica and Bob Marley - Reggae King of the World, The Gleaner, The Jamaica Observer and Jamaica Journal. She has won awards for her photography in the JCDC Photographic National Competition and has been a judge for the JCDC Festival Photo Competition.
