After the Island: Ornament and Ceramic Practice in the Jamaican Diaspora
Advertisement
Join us for an Artist Talk with the three artists from After the Island: Ornament and Ceramic Practice in the Jamaican Diaspora – PJ Anderson, Jacqueline Bishop and Sharon Norwood, in conversation with Curator Key Jo Lee.
The exhibition considers how culture is carried across migration and remade through distance. Each artist approaches Jamaica from a different point along the
diasporic continuum: through lived memory, inherited history, or an ancestral connection reconstructed across generations. Their works reveal ornament as a living language, capable of holding what has been remembered, fragmented, lost, and newly imagined.
