    “Like my fragrances, this house is a mix of modern and nostalgic,” said Maya Njie during our first visit to her home in Mudchute on the Isle of Dogs in 2020. The self-taught perfumer has spent more than a decade decorating her 1930s semi-detached house with pieces from different periods and places: a 1960s Utensilo wall organiser, a screenprint by the Russian artist Kazmir Malevich and a globe from a charity shop in Sweden are among the many treasures that fill her trove. Naturally, then, Maya makes a most suitable subject for our film series Seven Wonders.

    Best Tour: I love your things, especially the photos, the one you took of the place you stayed in Spain is fabulous and the bits and pieces holder by the door is ingenious. Tank you for showing us round.

    Did we watch different versions of Tom and Jerry? I googled it and I don’t remember the character represented in this painting.

    • @Imanimani
      @Imanimani Před rokem +20

      Maybe you watched a later version of Tom and Jerry where she was edited out/no longer used. I certainly remember the Mammy character from the 80s T & J cartoons. We never saw her face...
      Try googling 'Tom & Jerry Mammy'.
