As a developing postcolonial institution, we work to ensure a healthy space for dialogue, problem-solving and the emergence of creative solutions.
Photography is in focus on tonight’s Blank Canvas, where we meet two young Bahamian photographers with recent exhibitions and a book publication.
Delton Barrett has his first solo show opening up at the D’Aguilar Art Foundation. Entitled “Nurture,” his portraits and conceptual works in this series try to answer questions that explore whether we are the products of nature or nurture. Delton shares how he became interested in photography as a medium and how he taught himself the techniques he uses in his craft today. Follow him on Instagram at delton_b.
On tonight’s Blank Canvas, our host Amanda Coulson, NAGB Director, welcomes Dr. Eddie Chambers into the studio.
Eddie Chambers, the son of Jamaican immigrants, was born in Wolverhampton, England. He gained his PhD from Goldsmiths College, University of London in 1998, for his study of press and other responses to the work of a new generation of Black artists in Britain, which were active during the 1980s.
