Christopher Cozier, one of Trinidad and Tobago’s leading artists, speaks to Art Worlds. His practice is grounded in the island’s post independence conditions. This context provides an entry point to exposing wider cultural shifts, historical erasures and international economic policies that have affected the broader Caribbean region. Aside from his artwork, which has been shown most recently at Liverpool Biennale and Sharjah Biennale, Christopher also writes, teaches and co-founded Alice Yard, an experimental project space in the country’s capital Port of Spain. The space is a focal point for many artists, curators, architects and writers. From his studio he spoke about his interest in putting forward new readings of the region including understanding the island’s oil wealth and its changing communities.
