\u201cTapabocas\u201d, oil on canvas, 16 x 16 inches, was created by Mohammed in 2016.<\/p><\/div>\n

Caribbean-born artist Stacy Mohammed <\/a>of Randolph will display a number of her oil paintings in an exhibit titled \u201cSantos y Milagros\u201d at Northern Essex Community College<\/a>\u2019s Linda Hummel-Shea ArtSpace from November 13 through December 15. There will be an opening reception and artist\u2019s talk Thursday, November 16, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

These paintings explore Catholicism, the religion in which Mohammed was raised, and the role of the saints as well as the question of identity and culture.<\/p>\n

\u201cBeing from the Caribbean and of mixed ethnicity and religions, I am interested in the question of identity and these paintings are an attempt to explore all these parts of myself, my culture and other cultures like mine, places like Mexico, Dominican Republic, where the native culture has had to adapt and reinvent itself,\u201d Mohammed said.<\/p>\n
