As an award winning British steel pannist Jenny Gilberg embraces Trinidad’s national performance tradition, steel pan, from a perspective based in the visual arts. The solo exhibition of documentary-style painting and photography is to be accompanied by a catalogue of Panorama videos providing viewers with a context to the imagery. The exhibition coinsides with the run up to the UK Panorama competition and Notting Hill Carnival, in which Jenny will be taking part. This exhibition brings to Newcastle a behind-the-scenes look at the prestigious Trinidad & Tobago Panorama competition - from a panyard in Laventille to the performance in Queen's Park Savannah.
