Noel Norton photographed at his Westmall studio. Yesterday I offered a perspective on the work of two good friends at the launch of Minshall by Norton, a book celebrating the art of Peter Minshall as captured by Noel Norton. This is an excerpt. You can read the whole statement at Trinigoodmedia.com (Link in bio) "What Noel and Mary Norton did across more than five decades was to set an unsurpassed example of commitment to the documentation of culture in Trinidad and Tobago generally and to Carnival specifically. But they did one more critical thing. The Nortons showed photographers what self-respect looks like through their industrious and methodical preservation and curation of their work. This was not a common approach to photography in this country. The concept of a coherent, organised oeuvre of work examining a single subject and created with a singular vision is not commonplace here. To be sure, the notion of preserving anything at all seems to continuously elude us. And if film was fragile, modern photography is even more tenuous. Most bodies of modern work are one electromagnetic glitch from being reduced to digital gibberish." #archive #lyndersaydigital #trinidad #photographer #carnival #history #minshall #peterminshall #trinidadandtobago #documentation #filmphotography #photography #thenortoncollection #thelyndersayarchive (at The Falls at Westmall) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5yZTNYpjLa/?igshid=1eib7ibjgqrcw

I had seen Moko Jumbies all my life. But one day, suddenly, I thought: my God, he is a ballerina on toes. I added a little toe and calf and somehow it makes him look like a creature from Alice in Wonderland. This is not a costume, it is a mas. On Thursday night, Jha-whan played the mas. - Peter Minshall, interviewed on his new mas 'The Dying Swan' at http://www.newsday.co.tt/news/0,223352.html #Minshall #JhawhanThomas #TheDyingSwan (at Queen's Park Savannah)
