Arika have been creating events since 2001. The Archive is space to share the documentation of our work, over 600 events from the past 20 years. Browse the archive by event, artists and collections, explore using theme pairs, or use the index for a comprehensive overview.
The Echo project is an installation as audio guide for a crowd. And at the same time it’s a private conversation: with you, as one of 20 people in a room, a sort of public intimacy.
How do grassroots feminist organisations strategise relationships between mothers, parents, carers and their children based on respect and empowerment, in resistance to the practice of putting children in often the most uncaring of places – care.

One of the most arresting and unique improvisers in Japan, creating an original and powerful body of free music.
A fully transcribed, described, and open-captioned film screening that’s nothing short of their actual open heart.

Jandek’s second ever live performance, and the first to be advertised in advance.
