Double Dutch Opening
Join us as we celebrate the opening of one of our new fall exhibitions on Tuesday, November 2nd at 6:30 p.m “Double Dutch”, which features Bahamian artist Tamika Galanis and Trinidadian artist, Rodell Warner. The event is free and open to the public, however COVID-19 emergency protocols for social distancing will be strictly enforced. Proof of vaccination is required. Please register your planned attendance time via the button below. Double Dutch brings together artists from the region and diaspora to produce provocative bodies of work through collaboration and exchange. The project works against ideas of nationalism and the insularity of our creative environs by creating an experimental hub to explore regional and diasporic culture, our creative acumen and sensibilities. For this 8th iteration of the Double Dutch exhibitions, Tamika Galanis and Rodell Warner investigate what archival photography means in the Caribbean space. Presented with the spirits of ancestors and silk-cotton trees who have borne witness to the shifting physical and social landscapes in this space, Galanis and Warner give us room to question how the colonially manufactured view of our past as a region has shaped the ways in which we know - or, perhaps more importantly, don't know - ourselves in the contemporary.
