Tilting Axis Fellow Amanda T. McIntyre presenteert Present Continuous

Her research focuses on the archiving of contemporary Caribbean masquerade traditions, with a special focus on the materials used and the question of who the culture actually belongs to. Present Continuous explores sustainable ways to archive and preserve mas – contemporary Caribbean masquerade cultures. During the Nieuwe Instituut/Tilting Axis Fellowship, she brings together architecture, mas , queer studies and climate justice. In this way, she aims to find ways to protect and preserve Caribbean carnival traditions and costumes in a way that is good for the environment and serves local communities.
