#CaribbeanLinked V participant blog post comes from Barbadian artist and writer Adam Patterson. Adam shares a reflection on the residency, drawing powerful parallels between the apparent harshness of the Aruban landscape that has still managed to produce under its own terms, with the unconventional ways the Caribbean continues to forge its own models of fruitfulness and connectivity in defiance of a hostile atmosphere. https://caribbeanlinked.com/editions/caribbean-linked-v/artist-texts/adam-patterson/
