About the Exhibit

Through a collection of large format portraits of multi-generational families at their homesteads, local artist Meredith Andrews captures the fortitude of family life in Bermuda. Her vibrant family photographic portraits are an artistic response to NMB’s Bermuda Family Scrapbook project.

Accompanying the stunning portraits is an audio component where visitors can listen to some of the photographed family members reflect on what home means to them and their favourite memory of the homestead.
