this is another slice of home for you guys- shared from my mentor nicolette bethel's blog about the significance of today for Bahamian artists. i helped organize a visual protest last year with my classmates in support [and we in turn got the Bahamas to look at us]. i'm not home anymore, but this is still important to me, so white i shall wear today, since i can't do much else. except work to remove this 'absence' of art in my country, any way i can.
For unknown reasons that are probably best left unsolved, young Bahamian artist Lindsay Braynen decided to forgo all common sense and relocate to Vancouver, Canada- to pursue further education and a career in the commercial art world of Illustration.
Here she documents [whenever she remembers to, that is], the trials, tribulations and the art that she has made/encountered while braving cold weather and culture shocks that surprisingly she has no problem with.
