Cydne Jasmin Coleby, the Bahamian born artist who studied graphic design in her formative years at the University of the Bahamas, takes a mixed media approach to her works that deal with breaking new ground and achieving personal triumph in spite of trauma and loss. Using rich personal experiences as a backdrop for her creativity, Coleby fuses traditional Bahamian textiles with her skills in graphic design to create intricate collages deeply rooted in storytelling.
In her own words she describes her work in more depth.
"Self-reflection is an intrinsic aspect to my art practice. Through my graphic collages I examine personal and collective/ancestral relationships to trauma and conditioning. It’s hard to distinguish between which experiences inform rather than define our identity. My work aims to explore this grey area, while questioning our ability for healing, and to cultivate our individual and collective narratives, through these events.”
