Two portraits created
three centuries apart
Journey into a realm "Between Two Worlds". This exhibition invites you to embark on an exploration of two scholars whose portraits, though created centuries apart, share a profound connection.
Immerse yourself in the world of Vanley Burke's photography and archival treasures, carefully juxtaposed with historical artefacts and scientific imagery that unveil new perspectives on the enigmatic Francis Williams painting.
Delve into the lives and legacies of these individuals as their stories intertwine and resonate across time. Vanley Burke’s compelling portraits, filled with depth and emotion, offer a glimpse into the present-day quest for identity and the triumphs and challenges faced by the Black community.
