On Andil Gosine’s photographs included above: In 2013, artist-scholar Andil Gosine staged “(Made in Love)” as the first of his ‘Cane Portraiture’ series in which subjects are invited to pose in front of a backdrop of sugarcane, both replicating and disrupting the colonial studios that became popular in British colonies starting in the late 19th century. The images presented here were taken at the inaugural “Indo-Caribbean Alliance” gala at the Jamaica Performing Arts Centre in Queens, New York and are of four key contemporary voices from the community: writers Gaiutra Bahadur and Rajiv Mohabir, filmmaker Ian Harnarine, and community leader Annette Seecharran.
