This catalogue is published in conjunction with the exhibition Relational Undercurrents: Contemporary Art of the Caribbean Archipelago, curated by Tatiana Flores for the Museum of Latin American Art.

From the foreword of this catalogue:

 

“Relational Undercurrents challenges the notion that the Caribbean is “isolated, hermetic, and beyond comprehension,” as stated by curator Tatiana Flores. The exhibition explores unifying elements and shared experiences of life in the Caribbean islands and their diasporas in four thematic sections: Conceptual Mappings, Perpetual Horizons, Landscape Ecologies, and Representational Acts. Presented here are paintings, installation art, sculpture, photography, video, and performance.”
