Junkanooacome, Mixed media with performance. 2018-ongoing. Performed during MADE in Queens at Plaxall Gallery, June 2019. Produced by Van Alen Institute and LIC Artists.

Junkanooacome is a site-specific, interdisciplinary/interactive project consisting of workshops, performances, and other media intended to decolonize and raise awareness of NYC’s historic spaces and monuments still bearing names of slave masters. Lyn-Kee-Chow aims to celebrate decolonization by making this Jamaican Junkanoo (a practice intended to confront slave-masters) relevant during other times of the year and not only during Christmas time as it's traditionally practiced.

Performers here include: Jodie Lynkeechow, Dalmar Nation, Stacie Cannon, Latee Dolley, Malcolm-x El-shabazz Betts, and Vidho Lorville on drums. Video by Mitchell Murdock, edited by yours truly.
