FREEPORT, Grand Bahama -- Chantal Bethel and Sheldon Saint - names that are synonymous with The Bahamas and creativity, are combining their talents in a new show at The Grand Gallery.
20/20 is a celebration of Saint and Bethel's 20 years of working as artists, respectively; careers that have established them firmly as important artists in The Bahamas.
Both artists frequently address themes of life and nature - in this show they explore these ideas further by encouraging consideration not only of the natural beauty of The Bahamas, but National treasures, for example "Tribute to Henry J. Bowen" - one of the Framers of the constitution of the Bahamas , the only one from Grand Bahama island - by Bethel.
Theses themes are relevant at any time, but especially of value now, during the 40 years celebration of Bahamian Independence. 20/20 offer us a chance to reflect on the diversity, complexity, history, relationships and simplicity of The Bahamas as seen through the eyes of the artists.
Sheldon brings his attention to 'life in The Bahamas' and implicit to this is the relationships between nature and humans. His watercolours are alive with a warm vibrancy whether the subject is children, the ocean or flowers.
