Rousing replies | UWI Graduate Exhibition 2023

From Kevin Baldeosingh : Remember: the woke bs infiltrated universities before it started getting people cancelled. It's already in UWI's Gender Dept, Arts, while race ideology has been in the History Dept for decades.

Reply: Martin D. Mouttet (Medulla Gallery Curator) Kevin Baldeosingh Please do not mischaracterize this event. It’s not about "woke b.s" or institutional gender and race politics…. it's simply about mental health and the role of creative expression in nurturing personal health, and how each of these students use their art practice to navigate and process harsh realities like anxiety, trauma, depression etc, and apply these tools for the greater good. That’s it.....All in this feed are welcome to attend.

Kevin Baldeosingh replies: Martin D. Mouttet Then don't use the term "safe space", which has a very specific connotation about censorship.

Vergil Hammer Chattergoon  I hear the term safe space used in forums for free expression without judgement. How do you hear it used?

Sexypink expects to add more to this space....

Sexypink - The UWI Visual Arts Unit has partnered with two venues to host an exhibition of art and design works by students in their final year of the Visual Arts Degree programme. 

The show will be open to the public at both the Art Society of Trinidad and Tobago (ASTT), and Medulla Art Gallery, from April 29 to May 6.

This is the first in-person exhibition by the Visual Arts Unit since the onset of the pandemic. With this in mind, the show is titled “LIVE.” Audiences can enjoy direct interaction with creative works at both venues. The word “live” also suggests that the art and design on display address current, pressing issues in society.

Viewers can expect a range of art forms, from painting and sculpture to video and sound installation.
