Photographer Nicola Muirhead joined us for an Artist Talk to discuss Descendants of Summer: A Preview. Learn more about her eight-year photographic journey examining Bermuda’s rich and complex heritage. Muirhead leads an open dialogue into her technical and creative process and the artwork which was on display in the Rick Faries Gallery.
The exhibition was available to view from October 4 – October 29, 2024.
This Artist Talk was brought to you by BEHIND THE PALETTE, Masterworks’ initiative to materially support artists with opportunities to learn, connect, and create with other artists.
