Forgotten Lands #8

Initially conceived as a benefit exhibition in the aftermath of hurricanes Irma and Maria, Forgotten Lands has evolved into a vital and transformative platform in the contemporary Caribbean art scene. As a non-profit organization FORGOTTEN LANDS supports emerging Caribbean artists and communities, collaborating through print, exhibitions, community events, films and beyond.

In this issue: Crossing The Horizon 

In Volume 8, artists confront historical erasure through a visual and conceptual language that emphasizes imagination, creativity, and aspiration that centers the Caribbean as a realm of possibility. This volume brings together contemporary artists from the Caribbean who engage the horizon not as a backdrop or compositional device, but as a threshold into other ways of knowing and being. Here, the horizon functions as a speculative zone: a site where memory drifts, where ancestral knowledge surfaces, and where alternative futures emerge. In this space that collides reality and fantasy, Caribbean artists articulate new ways of seeing that honour the past, confront the present, and gesture toward possibilities that remain just beyond the line where sea meets sky.
