Mutual Aid
4 days of workshops, discussions and artists presentations exploring the radical act of caring for each other while working to change the world.
Arika is a political arts organisation concerned with supporting connections between artistic production and social change.
We think of art as a relationship that constantly unfolds in the realm of the common, a process and a continuum. We see our role in this unfolding relationship as celebrating and supporting connections between art and social change. When we say art, we mean the ways we sing and dance together, the ways we listen and want to be heard, how we look and hope to be seen, how we think of our bodies and how we move through space, how we feel and want to be felt, for example.
