DR. MAYA ANGELOU - MISS CALYPSO REIMAGINED

DR. MAYA ANGELOU - MISS CALYPSO REIMAGINED

 

"Maya Reimagined” is an educational based multidisciplinary project (including students, faculty and practitioners). Working with Dr. Angelou's grandson son Elliot Jones and Thamiah Tutt, Director of the foundation. The project is centered around Dr. Angelou’s personal art collection. Using the art collection as the basis for the project, The New Project Collective (NPC) has remixed and reimagined songs from Dr. Angelou’s musical album “Ms. Calypso” and paired them with the art pieces that best reflect the song.
