Description
Artist, writer and curator Cedar Lewisohn explores themes from his latest publication, The Marduk Prophecy and recent research. Stemming from his interest in Jamaican culture and dub poetry, Cedar touches on how patois has influenced common-use English, as well as appearing in dancehall, reggae and drill lyrics. Patois is a form of english creole language that is spoken throughout Jamaica.
Cedar is joined by Joan Andrea Hutchinson, Jamaican poet and teacher, and Paul Stephan, a Thamesmead-based drill artist, to discuss their work and use of language.
