Dee Jumbie Dance: A Resurrection
Based on JUMBIE, the performance Jamal Gerald created, which resurrected the Jumbie dance of Montserrat. Part ritual, part party, part sex dungeon - and fully WTF. Although never presented to an audience, it will now remain archived.
A chaotic, playful and naughty artist book. Including Jumbie stories, essays, reflections, photography and artistic responses. Highlighting the research and creative process, queerness, BDSM, ancestry and healing.
A lost dance. A lost show. A story.
