National Exhibition

National Exhibition 6: Kingdom Come features work by 50 Bahamian artists responding to the idea of the apocalypse—not just as an end, but as a shift or new beginning. The exhibition looks at how global and local belief systems are being challenged in a time of rapid change. Artists explore five main themes: Identity, Transformation, Justice, Survival, and Conversion. Together, the works examine questions about who we are, what we’ve inherited, and how we move forward.

National Exhibition 6: Kingdom Come is curated by John Cox.
