Trini Narratives Told in a Totem.These stories are told about our own lives between the opposing dynamics of this space that is Trinidad and Tobago. When we are able to tap into this mystical space,we become the hybrid we are meant to be; These objects have their own power in the way they communicate our memory of lives lived.

If I had to criticize the play, “Master of Carnival” by Euton Jarvis and Ronald Amoroso my position on it would be that we needed two more days so as to encourage more people to see it, but with so many things on in this carnival season it was easy to dismiss the play.
However I am here to share my thoughts as part of the creative team. As designer of costumes and set, there were special moments I cherished and to share one was to see the actors really own the play in the way they located themselves in the kitchen of the house. To see the actors become one with their character, the set and the costumes was truly the spectacle. Looking in, Delpino played by Adam Pascall, the main character, transformed his costume to bring the Biblical character of King Belshazzar to life. The audience agreed with great crescendo of hands clapping. The sing along which ended the play with the merry band of musicians led by the musical director Krisson Joseph was yet another experience.
Artistic director Belinda Barnes gave us a real treat as she directed the actors and musicians to sing the calypsoes of past and present, which saw the actors making choices to leave their characters behind to perform each rendition. I would like to thank all the actors, the creative team and Raymer Diaz for understanding and acknowledging the authenticity of the set through his construction and turning the corners of the set to allow for the bedroom. My costume team which included Fabrice Barker actor, and member of NTAC and every thing real and large. Dianne Wilson for arriving from New York in the nick of time to sew the costumes. Thank you Delpino for reminding us of the creative process of the time, the struggle and rising above the limitations of “poverty’’
Thank you all.

Believing for a Miracle
We have just come back from Carifesta in Barbados and here I sit in Trinidad being gracious and thankful for being there because of certain people who made it happen . We planned as guided by the process but upon arriving we did not have a booth. Thanks to the people behind the Trinidad and Tobago’s booth I was able to share with them. There is still so much love in this great Twin Island that it is nice to be at the receiving end from the hearts of people on the ground who made it happen. Thank you TnT. And while I thank The hearts of men that worked diligently to represent the artisans in TnT I am thanking God for his provision and his limitlessness every day we were there. I guess I am trying to say that entrepreneurship is not only about profit it is believing in the transformational power and confidence of leadership and product that changes and transforms peoples lives: worthy of doing and worthy of making. We saw and learnt much form the Haitains’, their indigenous craft and fashion industry, Barbados and their ceramics and the lone weaver, Jamaica and their fashion Industry and the Trinidadian representing Nevis and her stitching landscape frames Wow !Wow ! Wow ! . Sorry I have no pictures as soon as I can retrieve them from my phone that died I will publish them with our success story

I would like to thank Angela Bhajan and her administration team for their leadership role in organising the pop up shop at her GreenHouse Garden shop. A well planned event with great rewards $$$. What was special for us is that we got to meet some familiar faces that I had not seen in years . San Fernando is still the warm generous space I use to remember in my early childhood
