AURELIA WALCOTT aureliaw@gmail.com Focusing on printmaking, the work of Aurelia Walcott takes you along the outline of nature and beauty aesthetics. This young artist is currently examining textures and tones found through the styling of hair within the Caribbean context.

While drawing inspiration from the island, her work plays with the initial subject matter but rather focus on the textures of the image.

Aurelia is showing in “Constants and Waves� at Aweipo Gallery, the Crane.

Show will run from April 24th to August 31 2010

JULIANNE GILL www.juliannegill.com I am inspired by nature and the beauty that surrounds us every day.

The ocean is my element; I have always lived near the sea.

After finishing my studies in Interior Design & Decoration, I set out on the typical Aussie 'Walkabout'; I ventured across the globe to South America, where I lived and travelled for several months.

I currently work as an Interior Designer and I am passionate about art and painting.

I am often drawn to paint in abstract form rather than a literal representation of a place or object. The conceptual use of colour and its ability to intermix on canvas can evoke a deep sensation within the viewer, resulting in personal interpretation rather than intellectual definition.

A Far Cry From Africa

DAISY HONEYBUNN www.daisyhoneybunn.com

A FAR CRY FROM AFRICA Exhibition of fine art photographer DAISY HONEYBUNN June 17th – 23rd June at the Old Truman Brewery off London’s Brick Lane ARTIST’S STATEMENT Daisy Honeybunn, 27 The series A Far Cry From Africa, sees the artist’s three enduring passions for photography, literature and travel combine (she has an MA in English Literature and Russian Studies). Based on Derek Walcott’s poem of the same name, the series, as the poem, explores themes as far ranging as human conflict, African political and economic history and the ravaging of the African continent’s wildlife and natural resources.

Born in St. Lucia in 1930, Derek Walcott has long been an established figure in the literary canon. A poet, playwright, writer and visual artist, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1992.

The poem’s title A Far Cry From Africa, not only carries the meaning of a long distance plea for help from the continent, but also the poet’s devastation in the realisation that the reality of Africa is far from the paradisial and peaceful depiction of it in early travellers’ tales and tourist brochures. The Africa he writes of is a far cry from this utopian image. Particularly poignantly, Walcott despairs of the terrible human conflict that has beset the continent for centuries. He does not focus on violence perpetrated by whites on blacks, nor by blacks on whites, but rather addresses the issue of human on human violence, and the conflicts as essentially human tragedies. This jarring reality, and a reminder of the catastrophic effect war has on the natural world, is presented in the artist’s photographs through the use of highcontrast, graphic images stained blood red (Walcott’s ‘bloodstreams of the Veldt’), destroying the spectacular, naturally occurring colours originally present in the photographs. As Walcott disregards the role of colour in the conflicts, so does the artist remove it from the pictures, and replaces it with the life source of humanity, blood.

Continued on next page………….

Walcott’s evident experience of alienation from Africa, having never visited it at the time of writing, but rather having just read news reports, and the ever-present conflict caused by his mixed genealogy, is mirrored in the experience of the exhibition visitor, presented with images from the African plains. The images are at once majestic, full of life and the daily cycles of nature, yet all at once frozen and lifeless behind a wooden frame and glass, the blood red stain an inescapable reminder of the conflicts scourging the African continent: not only the human conflicts, but also the scourge of illegal hunting and the ravaging of Africa’s natural resources that are still common place in many parts of the continent.

The artist uses the study of both the indigenous animals of Africa and her landscape, to evoke the crisis enveloping the African continent, a seemingly relentless cycle of despotic leadership, civil war, genocide and famine. Rather than a graphic and literal depiction of ‘corpses scattered through a paradise’, the photographs focus on the similarities between humans and animals, that also feature throughout Walcott’s poem, and help to demonstrate these themes. The ‘worried beasts’; the childlike hand reaching to the mother; the mother ostrich desolate, childless amongst the shattered shell of a stolen egg; the increased and relentless need for migration due to a lack of suitable habitats (mirroring the refugee crisis resulting from the conflicts); the tusk, a striking reminder of the brutal and destructive ivory trade.

Above all the artist endeavours to remind the viewer, as Walcott states in his poem, that the animals of the plain have been present since ‘civilisation’s dawn’, the very contours of the African landscape mirrored in the patterns of their skin and fur, the elephant, steadfast, the mother of all civilisation in African folkloric tradition.

Rather than being devoid of hope, the series presents the reader with the same multi-faceted dilemma as the ending of Walcott’s poem: what can be done? Whilst the majestic and beautiful wildlife and natural landscape is still present the viewer is challenged to think of the future. As the four stages of day are depicted in the photographs, the viewer must ask what will tomorrow’s sunrise bring. ‘How can I turn from Africa and live?’

ANNALEE DAVIS www.annaleedavis.com "Public Beach Access" will be screened for the first time in the Dominican Republic at the first International Triennial of the Caribbean.

"Public Beach Access" (2010) Annalee Davis Video Installation 8. 39 minutes Shot and Edited by Omar Estrada.

Stills by Sandy Majerus This work documents my repeated action of measuring ten Public Beach Access points to find out how many feet of beach access is available to local people on seven miles of the most lucrative stretch of the West Coast on the island of Barbados.

Throughout the work, I sing the lyrics to a song composed and originally performed by local musician, Gabby, and called “Jack, the Beach is Mine!”. This song was a response to the Barbados Board of Tourism’s legal counsel advising hotel owners that they had the right to extend their property down to the waterfront.

To see the full video, check out the link here at: http://www.annaleedavis.com/work/public_beach_access.html

1st International Triennial of the Caribbean in Santo Domingo 2010 (Tric 2010) Annalee Davis will be participating in the Inaugural Triennial of the Caribbean in Santo Domingo .

Supported by the statement “Santo Domingo, Cultural Capital of America 2010,” and in an effort to develop international cultural presence, the Dominican Republic’s Ministry of Culture, through the Museo de Arte Moderno, undertakes the celebration of the “1st International Triennial of the Caribbean in Santo Domingo 2010.” It will be held at Museo de Arte Moderno and other alternative spaces of the Dominican Cultural Capital from September 1 through October 24.

The Biennial of the Caribbean (BC) was conceived in Santo Domingo in 1992, as an event and encounter focused on Caribbean and Central American painting, including the great and minor Antilles, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Cayena and Suriname. In its last two editions (2001 and 2003), it included the so called “transterrados” or Caribbean artists of the “Diaspora,” based mainly in Miami and New York City.

The 1st International Triennial of The Caribbean focuses on new horizons of content and projection, with a unique and main subject: Art and The Environment, including the participation of creative productions of high value coming from all geographical-linguistic areas of the Caribbean: English-spoken, French-spoken, Hispanic, Dutch, from the Grand Caribbean, Miami and Central America.

MACO Caribbean Living Magazine is the epitome of Caribbean elegance, creativity and style, featuring the best of Caribbean architecture, art, gardens and festivals.

With its clean lines, colourful spreads and glossy finish, MACO Caribbean Living is a symbol of the simplicity and mystery of the Caribbean . Featuring writers and photographers from around the world, each has had experience and a background in the Caribbean , contributing reflections and opinions that are differing, intriguing, and most importantly honest.

The word ‘maco' is a combination of African and French (called Patois, a Trinidadian dialect) and refers to a nosy person, or ‘to mind someone else's business'. Indeed, MACO not only delves into the physical beauty of the Caribbean but also reflects that which is intangible; its culture, its spirit and its philosophy. Within its pages, MACO conveys like no other the interwoven nature of the Caribbean and its eternal fascination for all who view it.

MACO Caribbean Living – Mission Statement MACO Caribbean Living is dedicated to bringing the beauty and excitement of the Caribbean to the world with clarity, honesty and style. MACO Caribbean Living strives to reflect that intriguing combination of simplicity and opulence for which the region is known, from multiple and constantly changing perspectives.
