Petti has been filming carnival in Trinidad for a number of years, with works spanning a range of genres, from documentary to music videos.
This screening presents her ever evolving archive and lens, exploring the changing meaning and shape of carnival across the diaspora. The programme includes the first four episodes of her Mas Prep series, which explores the rich tradition of Trinidad’s carnival, celebrating the artists and performers and sharing behind-the-scenes footage.
A panel discussion will follow the screening hosted by writer and cultural producer Yaya Azariah Clarke.
Programme curated by Lauren Gee.
