Descendants of Summer: A Preview Exhibition by Nicola Muirhead
October 4 – 29, 2024
Descendants of Summer: A Preview features the work of award-winning Bermudian photographer Nicola Muirhead. This exhibition highlights her evolving documentary series, Descendants of Summer, an eight-year photographic journey examining Bermuda’s rich and complex heritage and identity.
This project dives deep into the legacies of our island community, exploring the stories of our heroes and heroines, as well as the shadows of our past. It poses thought-provoking questions about home and the narratives that make up place and identity.
In collaboration with local artists, activists, political figures, and historians, this exhibition offers a glimpse into Muirhead’s expansive work, featuring a diverse range of mediums, including film, digital photography, archival images, video, artefacts, and interviews. Together, these elements celebrate the multifaceted stories that define our unique microcosm in the Atlantic.
The public is invited to join us for an opening reception on Friday, October 4, from 5:30 – 7pm. The exhibition will be available to view from October 4 – October 29, 2024.
