Welcome to Barbados Monthly Arts Events Thank you to the Gallery of Caribbean Art and The Art Hub who have teamed up to pay for an upgrade for this magazine through 2017. This means The Visual Arts Barbados Magazine may now be viewed with no ads and downloaded. This is a completely free magazine created out of the need to inform so that we can get to exhibitions, artist talks, workshops and more, rather than hearing about events after they have taken place. I encourage anyone with a creative event or a new piece of work to get in contact with me at corriescott@gmail.com and I will add a free page for you. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s get the arts out there! Please, pass this magazine on to others and so help the creative side of Barbados get all the exposure possible. Corrie

Bread n Chese. Yesterday i ate a handful.Ive forgotten how powerfully astringent the pulp is.It cleans the entire throat,n deep into chest.It brought back many memories... This was a early mornin snack,walking up 'de choppa hill' on the way to mt Tabour primary school in the late 70s.I dont have to mention,how we Foraged our way home, arriving home with torn clothes,designed with all shades of Stains from juices of Fruits.We could have never arrived,in the school yard like that,or headmistress mrs goodridge would have sent for deCane,then we all would have felt eachothers pain.We were more connected then,than children are today.The glue,of exsperiencebonds,were different,Richer,Stronger,Deeper. Those days the country roadsides,were Paradisikal,fruits of all types poured over into the Rural narrow,gravel n tar potholed roads.There were less monkeys n way more fruit trees then,the rainydays were more abundant.We could have hardly reached school ontime in the mornings. Those days, the amount of vegatables n fruits around,it seemed as if everyone were farming the land.

Fresh Milk was pleased to present our 20th public event FRESH MILK XX on Tuesday, May 9th, 2017. This event featured a showcase of recent work by Barbadian artist Kraig Yearwood, the 2017 Fresh Milk ‘My Time’ Resident Artist, who was on the platform during the month of March. Pamela Lee, an international curator and gallery manager who has worked at the Dominik Mersch Gallery in Sydney, Australia, was in conversation with Kraig about his residency, and also made a presentation about the connections and potential for collaborations between the areas of art and science. drea brown, a US-based poet and recent Fresh Milk resident artist in partnership with The John L. Warfield Center for African and African American Studies at the University of Texas in Austin, spoke about her residency and the context behind her work, and closed the evening with a powerful poetry reading. Thanks so much to our photographer Dondré Trotman for these images! http://www.dondretrotman.com Album. https://www.facebook.com/pg/FreshMilkBarbados/photos /?tab=album&album_id=1120015001437488

KRAIG YEARWOOD

Fresh Milk welcomes Nyugen Smith and Letitia Pratt

Fresh Milk is excited to welcome US-based interdisciplinary artist Nyugen Smith and Bahamian writer Letitia Pratt to the platform for the month of June, 2017. While in Barbados, Nyugen will be working on a project which contributes to a multi-part installation titled Lavway. (“Lavway” is Trinidadian patois for “le vrai,”or “the truth” in French, and is the name of a form of calypso that reports the truth as seen by the singer or composer.) Lavway will examine the education system in the Caribbean from late nineteenth century to present day with a focus on systematic omission of histories and contributions of people from the African diaspora. His Fresh Milk residency will be spent in part on research and collecting relevant objects, recordings, and texts in relation to this. https://freshmilkbarbados.com/2017/06/02/fresh-milk-welcomes-nyugen-smith-and-letitia-pratt-to-the-platform/

Letitia intends to use the residency to work on an individual poetic project, Melody of a Lost Woman. This series of twelve narrative poems will focus specifically on Bahamian womanhood and the effects of the patriarchy on the feminine existence within the Bahamas. The piece draws strongly on Moya Bailey’s concept of misogynoir, which refers to the violence that black women endure by the hands of black men. Her work and research in Barbados will question the ways Bahamian misogynoir differs from other patriarchal incarnations, and explore commonalities through Caribbean history and folklore to consider these experiences across the African diaspora. Letitia Pratt recently obtained her Bachelor of Arts in English Language and Literature from the College of the Bahamas. An avid reader of fantastic fiction, most of her writing navigates the existence of black (feminine) bodies within that genre and draws heavily on stories within Bahamian folklore. Her themes often explore the function of art and literature within the Bahamas, and her most recent published work, ‘A Scene (of Two Lovers Contemplating Suicide)‘ discusses the concept of liminality within artwork, and how it’s the ability to occupy multiple spaces creates an active exchange of ideologies.

Drawing heavily on his West Indian heritage, Nyugen Smith is committed to raising the consciousness of past and present political struggles through his practice which consists of sculpture, installation, video and performance. He is influenced by the conflation of African cultural practices and the residue of European colonial rule in the region. Responding to the legacy of this particular environment, Nyugenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work considers imperialist practices of oppression, violence and ideological misnomers. While exposing audiences to concealed narratives that distort reality, he destabilizes constructed frameworks from which this conversation is often held.

VERSIA HARRIS “I’ve been accepted into an MFA program at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan, USA; I will start in September this year. Most of the funds for me to go have been accounted for, however, there are some extra costs that I still have to acquire. I am selling these limited edition prints to help. If you are able, please purchase one.. or two.. or all! No, seriously any support you can offer would be so appreciated. Even if you can’t, I hope you still enjoy these on-screen images – I must say, though, that the physical is much better You can email me at versia.abeda@gmail.com for further details about payment methods and shipping options. All questions are welcome. Thank you!” Versia

She began by hand-painting local pottery with bold and colourful designs. After graduating University she made the decision to pursue her passion for art through the medium of ceramics. Juliana has worked with a number of techniques such as casted ceramics, handbuilding, surface decoration and raku firing. Juliana was first introduced to Raku in 2006 during a two week residency in St. Thomas USVI, with this exposure Juliana began mixing her own glazes, constructed her own kiln and has been Raku firing since then. https://www.facebook.com/thebarnartcentre/

"The first time was historic, this second participation is truly ground-breaking. It is the first time that a country from the Caribbean, aside from the art giant of Cuba, has shown in back to back biennales. Jamaica participated once, and Bahamas once, but up to now Grenada is the only island from the Southern Caribbean to participate. It says a lot about the determination of the artists and the commitment of the Ministry of Culture to once again take on this task of showing Grenada’s art on the world stage. The exhibition will open on 12th May at its Official National Pavilion on 417 Fondemente Zattere and extend through the end of November. The Honourable Senator Brenda Hood as the Minister of Culture appointed Dr. Susan Mains as Commissioner, and Mr. Omar Donia of Contemporary Practices as the Curator.
