Welcome to Barbados Monthly Arts Events Thank you to the Gallery of Caribbean Art and The Art Hub who have teamed up to pay for an upgrade for this magazine through 2017. This means The Visual Arts Barbados Magazine may now be viewed with no ads and downloaded.

This is a completely free magazine created out of the need to inform so that we can get to exhibitions, artist talks, workshops and more, rather than hearing about events after they have taken place.

I encourage anyone with a creative event to get in contact with me at corriescott@gmail.com and I will add a free page for you.

Let’s get the arts out there!

Please, pass this magazine on to others and so help the creative side of Barbados get all the exposure possible.

CURATOR’S STATEMENT ‘Divine Feminine’ is Artists Alliance Barbados contribution to the conversation on women, the sacred and society.

The hashtag #MeToo as a rallying cry is the most recent recurrence of women (and men) disclosing their personal experience with sexual harassment, abuse, molestation and rape. It follows the hashtag #lifeinleggings revelations started by our own Ronelle King that became a Caribbean-wide movement to draw attention to the violence women experience “as a matter of fact”.

Nearly every woman I know has a story to tell and it’s scary.

Barbados is currently debating new sexual harassment legislation.

Why is violence against women so prevalent?

Is it a case of nature verses nurture, where our animal instincts outweigh our intellectual faculties?

Can this vile, almost seeming, rite of passage be eliminated?

How do we start to mend the schism in our collective DNA so that women and children are safe and protected whilst being free to express their true selves?

One aspect discussed is the historical socio-religious organisation of society. Many western societies are patriarchal with strong male god heads without the equal upliftment of the female. Where then are women in our concept of divinity? Does this affect our treatment of the female? Is only one of the sexes to be honoured and respected, and why?

Another aspect is perceptions of women shaped by contemporary society. Some of our pain as women is deeply rooted in how society sees and portrays us – as accessories to luxury goods, as prizes in conquest, and as objects for male gratification.

It is customary to respect the sacred. Women are the entry way of humanity to the planet and therefore deserving of the most care and protection. Divine Feminine looks at her role as mother and caretaker.

“Divine Feminine” the exhibition aims to rebalance the energy where both female and male are seen as divine, a regenerating pair. It seeks to highlight the position of grace or peace where the overarching tenet is love.

We discuss the idea of attainment and atonement of divinity, expressions of love, compassion and forgiveness, submission and acquiescence and a release from struggle.

She is not the plantation woman but she is.

She is not the bashment girl but she likes it.

She is not verse in skinouttology, she knows where and when.

She is the warrior who has put down her arrows.

She is peace Oneka Small Curator
