Current Exhibition
Da Yard Group Exhibition
“Da Yard” brings together a group of Bahamian artists who turn their attention to a familiar yet deeply formative space: the backyard. Through painting, drawing, and installation, Amaani Hepburn, Reagan Kemp, Malia Kinger, Jordon Ritchie, Dyah Neilson and Samantha Treco explore how this environment operates as both a physical and emotional landscape, one that quietly shapes identity, memory, and cultural belonging. The works are rooted in the textures of everyday life, where gates, chairs, and local flora and fauna become charged with meaning. Nostalgia runs throughout the exhibition as a method of excavation, revealing how ordinary objects hold layered histories and shared experiences across Bahamian communities.
