About the artwork
Roomor’s House
Roomor’s House, an iconic heritage structure in Port of Spain, Trinidad, stands as a striking testament to the island’s colonial past and architectural grandeur. This historic edifice exhibits the flamboyant aesthetics of the Victorian era, distinguished by its gingerbread trimmings, fretwork adornments, and elaborate balustrades that grace its balconies and verandas. The building’s design is both functional and ornamental, with expansive windows and louvred shutters that speak to the Caribbean’s climatic demands while retaining a distinctive stylistic elegance. The house’s complex roofline, accentuated by decorative gables and finials, alongside its stately towers, contribute to its majestic presence, making it a notable example of cultural synthesis and architectural craftsmanship in Trinidad’s capital.

About the Artist
It started after retirement, when an irresistible worn and tired pair of boots were just begging to be drawn. Add to that, the moniker ‘zzoppy’ and zzoppyart began to bubble.
Michele Farinha, ‘zzoppy’ is a self taught Trinidadian artist whose pencil art depicts authentic heritage buildings of the 19th and 20th century in Trinidad. Suburban houses styled with large eaves, jalousies, finials and highly decorative fretwork display a level of artisanship that is captured in detail by the artist. Her artwork seeks to cultivate pride and touch the soul of the Trinbagonian diaspora and locals alike, to encourage identity and belonging.
The geometric designs, in her preferred bold black and white, are another facet of her creativity while the free flowing doodles are spontaneous and random in shape. These designs are multi functional and contemporary in purpose and usage.
Zzoppyart adds a new dimension to local and by extension Caribbean art, complimenting heritage tourism while fostering belonging.
