I was so happy to have been selected to participate in this amazing exhibition project. I would like to extend sincere thanks to project organizer Joscelyn Gardner and also thanks to Estelle Thompson and their teams at Print London / Satellite Project Space in London, Ontario and at The Brighton Storeroom in St. George, Barbados. And also a big thanks to all the participating artists, everyone who worked behind the scenes and also to the people who volunteered to sit the galleries during the exhibition! My appreciation!

Organized by Print London and The Brighton Storeroom, Barbados, this exhibition of original editioned works in a wide variety of print media aims to explore commonalities between Print London’s member artists and printmakers from Barbados, as they negotiate their printmaking practices between two spaces.
