TERN Gallery presents “SUMMER SUMMER: Works on paper,” which is on view from July 2 through Aug 22, 2026. TERN is located at Mahogany Hill, Western Road,
Nassau, The Bahamas.

Featuring the work of the exhibiting artists Melissa Alcena, Delton Barrett, Jason Bennett, La Vaughn Belle, Leonardo Benzant, April Bey, Cydne Jasmin Coleby, John Cox, Kendra Frorup, Kachelle Knowles, Jodi Minnis-Rolle, Heino Schmid, Steven Schmid, Simon Tatum, Drew Weech, and Tessa Whitehead, the exhibition focuses on the ephemerality, versatility, and diversity that paper offers. Included in the show are collages, prints, handmade paper, and mixed media works, each demonstrating a distinct perspective on material, process, and form.

SUMMER SUMMER: Works on Paper is a group exhibition bringing together the work of eighteen artists whose practices explore the expressive possibilities of paper as both medium and material. Encompassing drawing, printmaking, collage, mixed media, and handmade paper, the exhibition highlights the breadth of approaches that paper invites. Whether serving as a surface for mark-making, a structural element, or an integral component of the artwork itself, paper offers artists a space for experimentation, storytelling, abstraction, and play.

United through a shared material rather than a singular theme, the exhibition celebrates paper’s unique capacity to embody both permanence and fragility. From intimate studies to richly layered compositions, each work reflects a distinct engagement with process, texture, and form. Collectively, these works reveal paper as a medium of remarkable versatility—one that continues to foster innovation while encouraging artists to transform the familiar into something lasting.
