ART

“Being an artist and curator myself, presenting art is an essential element of The Caribbean Housewife, but also a way to show art by female contemporary artists, who give an eye-opening view on black art, visual culture, diaspora, diversity, identity, and intersectional feminism.”

Jamain Brigitha curated Jeannette Ehlers (Denmark) as the first artist to present her Atlantic photography series and her publication ‘SAY IT LOUD!’ from October 7 until November 27, 2016.

The second artist Ilse Gijsberts (the Netherlands) showed a new series of collages from December 1, 2016 to March 19, 2017.

The third artist Phylicia Gilijamse (the Netherlands) presented her minimalistic jewellery from February 2 to March 19, 2017.

The forth presented work was the ‘Kitchen Table Series’ by Carrie Mae Weems (United States), which was on show from October 6, 2017 to March 21, 2018.

The fifth artist was Bristol based illustrator Parys Gardener (United Kingdom).
