MJ02

From 2001-2002, before I began to design with Dragon for Keylemanjahro School of Arts and Culture I assisted the group during all of their presentations as a handler, seamstress, security, and documenter. The experience led the way to a future collaborating with Dragon and the group on thematic design and character development for their Junior Carnival presentations and competitions. This is a recap of all of their presentations during the 2002 Carnival Season in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago. The video premiered at CCA7 Caribbean Contemporary Arts, Trinidad in Laventille, was screened on Trinidad and Tobago National Television and was used by Keylemanjahro for the promotion of their group.
