As we progress in technology, we regress in our innate sensibilities. We trust machines more than we trust each other, more than we trust ourselves. We mask our true identities in order to fit into the systems that are imposed upon us. My work centres on the ability to retrieve and embody sources that ignite spirit activation through movement, word/sound power, writing, fashion, and visual consumption. I am interested in actively reminding the world around me about our maternal foundations and the importance of empowering it in order to empower those that come from it, which is all of us. I engage this social awareness alongside a Caribbean cultural lens. My focus is rooted in the Trinidad and Tobago martial art and cultural form of Kalinda. Kalinda is a multidimensional performance complex that includes dance, drumming, lavways (call and response), ritual and stick fighting. I am a Kalinda practitioner who investigates and serves its Afro Caribbean futuristic qualities as a means of practicing freedom.

Jeffrey, Alfred Gallman, Nia Love Blacksmiths Daughter, Charles Moore Dance Theater, and H.T. Chen and dancers. Her choreographic work has been presented at various spaces including Carnegie Hall, Aaron Davis Hall/E-moves, Lincoln Center Out Of Doors, Mulberry St. Theater, Vassar College, Hollins University, Howard University, Riverside Theatre, D.A.D.D/Judson Memorial Church, S.O.B’s, Nuyorican’s Poets Cafe, Irving Plaza, BRIC/Arts, Brooklyn Museum of Art, Danny Simmons Corridor Gallery, MOMA (Museum of Modern Art), Queens Hall, Little Carib Theatre, Carifesta 2017 Barbados and Signatures/Serendipity UK.

She has choreographed and starred in music videos for artists such as Blitz The Ambassador and Umar Bin Hassan of legendary known, The Last Poets. Jamie returned home to Trinidad and Tobago in 2015 and was appointed the Movement and Dance Coordinator for the National Performing Entities of Trinidad and Tobago. She curated her first art, performance and panel exhibition featuring exemplary artist, Sarah Burrows in a conversation around the condition of women in Trinidad and Tobago and the effects of gender based violence.

She is the founder of Art On Purpose, a multifaceted lifestyle brand that promotes social awareness and cultural responsibility through dance performance and education, fashion and creative arts education. In 2019, she began an official rites of passage journey towards becoming a bois woman, a warrior woman of Kalinda. This journey inspired her to conceptualize and develop a dance and performance technique rooted in the tradition and culture of Trinidad and Tobago's martial art form, Kalinda. This initiative is supported by and co-created with Rondel Benjamin, Founder of Bois Academy of Trinidad and Tobago and the transitioned legendary bois man, King David Matthew Brown, also known as “Acid”. Jamie serves as the first woman leader of Bois Academy of Trinidad and Tobago. She is a recurring guest teaching artist for Norwegian Theatre Academy undergrad and graduate programs and has also been a guest artist with Wayne State University Theatre and Dance Department’s Intro to World Dance, Modern Dance and Freedom Players. Jamie completed a MA in Ethnochoreology at the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance. She is currently pursuing her PhD in Cultural Studies at the University of West Indies, St. Augustine Campus. Jamie believes in the power of art and its ability to heal and create dynamic change. She dedicates all her movement and magic to the legacy of her transitioned parents, Dennis and Veronica Philbert.

King David was widely known as a legendary stick fighter or as he would say a bois man. He was exceptionally rich in spirit , mind and body. A scholar in his own rights, mystic, healer and undoubtedly Trinidad and Tobago’s dancing warrior. Acid understood the power of sensuality, being-ness, joy, play, regality, warriorhood, nationhood and the essence of coolness it requires to stand on the periphery and hold up a nation with the vulgarity of your sweat and passionate poise. This fashion line speaks to that posture of power and the multidimensional vibrancy of energies King David walked with. Jamette Chronicles tells the visual story of a liberated people who understood the importance of pleasure and play inside resistance. Fully adjustable, convertible, versatile and made with 100% cotton, the garments reflect an aesthetic of daring cool. The line is available online and at East Yard in Arima Trinidad and Tobago. WE CELEBRATE THE DESTRUCTIONS OF OLD IDEAS TO CREATE NEW FUTURES THROUGH FASHION. https://www.jamiephilbert.com/work/kalinda-as-a-technology-for-dance-and-performance monthly 0.5 2020-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/1599205027773-GF16VRNVCKNFIZOE08UP/IMG_7512.JPG This Woman's Work - Kalinda as a technology for dance and performance https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/1599205312483-WKDM6KHNPGTTRLQJJ7XP/aopboiskendo5.jpeg This Woman's Work - Kalinda as a technology for dance and performance photo: Chad Lue Choy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/1599205117723-TFZ949P32HIMGO6LQNGM/davidboisacdemyaopbychadluechoy.jpeg This Woman's Work - Kalinda as a technology for dance and performance photo: Chad Lue Choy https://www.jamiephilbert.com/work/writings-p38t2 monthly 0.5 2020-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/1665876185266-L3440T6XL32AX2QTRIZB/jamieministry.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/1636999152211-D171G62E0HIFIIKGKUAQ/IMG_1602.JPG This Woman's Work - On Record-Writings & More - Make it stand out by Jamie Philbert https://www.jamiephilbert.com/work/projects monthly 0.5 2020-09-04 https://www.jamiephilbert.com/work/phoenixpanther-9jk8r monthly 0.5 2020-09-04 https://www.jamiephilbert.com/1mixed-media daily 0.75 2021-11-17 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/9d0d6e5a-4de3-44e4-8e30-75405708e903/6BAAD37D-E934-451F-A64D-998746731DEB-22238-00001ED8F5BA5F84.PNG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/b23e69f8-8131-4e12-a340-099b4cf14d1e/IMG_0680.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/98625aff-83fb-4e81-9dbe-897a217e20c5/6E18CE45-4BD9-40A8-9860-A8491CD3A43E.jpeg Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/e53d718c-73c3-4ea9-be62-72406341e08a/IMG_0556.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/5184ff87-9bcc-4863-b44d-c86fb7c351fd/6D2246F3-11FF-4DA8-9988-224F758BCCAF-25023-000021FE6764D299.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/04099381-3fa9-4001-adb1-8046e8d3de8d/IMG_0663.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/054c4e00-c306-4ad4-8ca6-8129b27b6fb5/IMG_0686.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/e4e403e2-7339-4a17-8328-9f6bedea44dd/IMG_0669.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/74101de3-521d-4163-8289-d6c0d4963d51/IMG_0559.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/a8c91e0e-6fc1-42e2-8db4-6533a06cc6b2/IMG_0572.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/a31249da-d673-4ae6-adf5-3b0c86f4473a/IMG_0701.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/1e4a53c4-cafc-4107-89cc-a39f1d1fd218/IMG_0435.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f2ffccdb4e00e41d47c3340/9e05ab33-d321-42e6-8469-7b0037972dae/IMG_0665.JPG Mixed Media Art Exhibition https://www.jamiephilbert.com/1mixed-media/unnatural-natural monthly 0.5 2021-11-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847336759-YACMFJPFHUW1OQZJXUUF/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition - UNNATURAL NATURAL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847336169-ER4P81V0HWA3SH81W1QR/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition - UNNATURAL NATURAL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847334968-DE82MACUOAUSEZT65M3H/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition - UNNATURAL NATURAL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847334245-H430ILXV7TTE8OBGPEW8/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition - UNNATURAL NATURAL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847333502-CVFRP4WIHRB50F56M888/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition - UNNATURAL NATURAL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ec321c2af33de48734cc929/1589847332741-UB05QWW31DIDXCV1C06L/20140301_Trade-151_0124-copy.jpg Mixed Media Art Exhibition - UNNATURAL NATURAL
