Artistic resilience in the face of increasing meteorological threats to the Caribbean
Hurricanes and the devastation they bring have long been a part of life in the Caribbean, but with climate change these storms are getting more frequent and more violent. In the face of these life-threatening climate catastrophes, artists can show us how these climate changes relate to a lived, everyday reality, and how they intersect with our experience of family, community and home. Hurricane Season is a story about a home under threat, cycles of environmental and political violence, and repairing communities despite the potential for them to be destroyed again. It features contemporary art in a range of mediums by artists from across the archipelago and the diaspora, including works by Firelei Báez, Lionel Cruet, Teresita Fernández, Tamika Galanis and Deborah Jack. The fully illustrated catalog includes essays by Mia Laufer and Lisa Paravisini-Gebert and poetry by Olive Senior and Celia A. Sorhaindo.
