Governors Island
Colonels Row House #405A

On view every Saturday and Sunday, 11 am - 5 pm through the month of August.

To commemorate Jamaica’s 60th year of colonial independence from the United Kingdom, Jamaican-American artist, Jodie Lyn-Kee-Chow presents a site-responsive mixed media installation of her ongoing performance project, Junkanooacome, a work informed by her research of the Jamaican masquerade, called Jonkunno, that was performed by enslaved Africans. The exhibition also includes new works on paper referencing archived testimonies of enslaved and free Jamaican women which will be incorporated in an international performance collaboration titled, Living Histories of Sugar set to debut in Fall 2022 in Kingston, Jamaica, Edinburgh, and Greenock, Scotland. The performance is directed and produced by Dr. Marisa Wilson, Institute of Geography, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, and sponsored by the Arts & Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).

All guests will be required to wear masks inside the house. If you have any questions please contact mail@triangleartsnyc.org.
