I See All The Way Back To Where I’m Supposed To See is a solo exhibition by the visionary Bahamian artist April Bey. Bey is an interdisciplinary visual artist whose practice presents Afro-futuristic and Afro-surrealist representations of her fictitious home planet, Atlantica. With each installation that she creates, Bey gives insight into another dimension of this alien planet, which teems with flamboyant plant life, gloriously attired inhabitants and beauty salons where your deepest desires for rest and self-care can be telepathically mined. For this exhibition at her hometown gallery in Nassau, Bey leads us through the mysticism of the “Magical Blue Holes found around the planet Earth”, the space stations found in those blue holes, and shares archival matter in the form of the lead images and headlines from “Atlantica Magazine”.
