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.

For day three of Ultra-red’s project, the investigation will take up protocols for listening to the sound of freedom composed and facilitated by Nancy Nevárez.

An audio/ video, lecture/ performance exploring the queer and companionly inter-activity of human-animal relations.
Come for the crip ingenuity; stay for the smooth feels of what it is to be each other’s everything.
In rethinking the body, the law, the state, gender, race, violence, care and empathy, how we might give humanness a different future?
Reading their letters to each other, and chatting about prefigurative politics as the practice of relentlessly building worlds through unspeakable violence and loss; of building worlds and living in them anyway.
