Event Description

Artists show the crucial role arts play in translating data sets and dire predictions into relatable terms, reframing the conversation around how changes in climate relate to everyday lived experiences -- as well as to notions of community, family, home.

“Hurricane Season” features 58 works in a range of media by six artists from across the Caribbean archipelago and its diaspora: Firelei Báez, Lionel Cruet, Teresita Fernández, Tamika Galanis, Deborah Jack, and Hew Locke.

Caribbean Dreams Runs from

October 11, 2024 - January 19, 2025 with opening night event on Oct 10th. exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue with essays by Mia Laufer (formerly Des Moines Art Center), Dr. Orin Zahra (National Museum of Women in the Arts), and Erica N. Cardwell, as well as a conversation between Box and renowned Dominican artist Firelei Báez. The show is created in partnership with Dr. Zahra, who will be curating a concurrent exhibition, “Samantha Box: Confluences” at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C.

The forms Box represents are always in flux, restlessly reappearing and transforming. Throughout, Box provides glimpses into the artist’s studio, revealing the artifice of images, particularly those that perpetuate the myth of a Caribbean paradise.
