Current students, faculty, and staff
OCAD University students, alumni and faculty will showcase their work at the FUZE Caribbean Art Fair 2025, taking place October 22–26, 2025, at Baha Mar in Nassau, The Bahamas.
The featured project, In Common Ink, began with an experimental risograph workshop held this past summer at OCAD U. The workshop was led by Shea Chang and visiting Bahamian artist John Cox, and brought together artists from OCAD U’s Caribbean diaspora. Participants explored shared histories, identity and care through collaborative printmaking. The resulting limited-edition risograph prints will be for sale at the fair.
Participating artists include Laaya Tabei, Cassandra Cunningham, Janine Pierre, Jessica Fernandez Reyes, Betiel Ghirmay, Peter de Souza Samanek, Ghislan Sutherland-Timm, Khadijah Morley and OCAD U faculty member Kestin Cornwall.
FUZE Caribbean Art Fair brings together over 50 booths, 18 countries and 120+ artists, making it one of the most dynamic showcases of contemporary art in the region. This year’s theme, All a We…, celebrates collective identity, shared histories and the power of community — values reflected in In Common Ink.
