EXIHIBITION - IN THE FOLDS OF US

In the Folds of Us explores the layered nature of identity, belonging, and cultural memory through portraiture, symbolism, and community interaction. Each artwork weaves together the personal and the collective—stories of migration, heritage, and quiet moments of care that bind us to place and to each other.

Using Caribbean flora, textured materials like newspaper, and her signature black and white figures, artist Cera-Tan draws from her experience as a South African living in the Cayman Islands. The result is a body of work that honors rootedness while acknowledging the movement, adaptation, and transformation that occur across borders and generations.

This exhibition invites viewers not only to witness but to participate: a clothesline installation titled The Line of Belonging becomes a collaborative archive where people share where they come from, what feels like home, and how they connect to the island. Through this, the exhibition becomes a living, evolving space—folded with meaning from each visitor.

Whether born here or just passing through, we all carry stories in our folds.

This is an invitation to open them...

Meet the Artist

Cera-Tan. K

I’ve been an artist for as long as I can remember, exploring creativity in various forms throughout my life. Coming from a family filled with creatives—event planners, architects, and more—art has always been a part of me. Like my grandmother, mother, and uncle, I’m a self-taught artist, which has allowed me to approach art in my own unique way.

My artistic style developed in Cape Town, South Africa, where I began creating small portraits using ink on canvas and incorporating elements of African culture. Over time, my work evolved to include vibrant colors, textiles, and mixed media, often drawing on my African roots for inspiration.

After moving to the Cayman Islands, a life-changing art competition reignited my passion for art. Winning the competition and being invited to teach art became the turning point in my journey. Since then, I’ve participated in exhibitions such as Cayman Art Week and the National Gallery Biennial, hosted my own solo exhibition, and created commissioned works, including two significant pieces for Hotel Indigo’s Catalina Restaurant.

Collaboration and creative freedom are at the heart of my work. Whether creating a commissioned portrait or exploring new ideas, I hold myself to the highest standards. My goal is to deliver art that isn’t just visually stunning but also deeply meaningful and reflective of my clients’ stories.
