Annette Richards-Binns: The Jonkonnu Project
And here I am as Jonkonnu's Pitchy Patchy! Jonkonnu is a traditional Christmas celebration with music & dance where performers parade through the streets in colourful costumes. This folk festival still survives in Jamaica and is traditionally performed by men. As a little child growing up in Jamaica I was frightened and fascinated by the Jonkonnu appearing and disappearing in the crowds but I loved the movement and dances of the characters.
So over 10 years ago as a grown up - I couldn't resist creating my Pichy Patchy character and dance. throughout Gloucestershire and during the past months highlighting aspects of the culture of the windrush generation. Look Out! Di Pichy-Patchy woman de bout!
