Abstract

Kempadoo's chapter was first published (2009) in the publication Black British Aesthetics Today, edited by Victoria Arana, Cambridge Scholars Publishing, Newcastle. I reflect on two interactive artworks/installations created take their starting point from Caribbean historical characters and events to engender an imagined creolised experience.
