A life force of ecstatic clarity capable of loquacious bursts of affirmation.
An evening of live performances, readings & saucy rococo cakes celebrating the launch of Truth and Lies – An Anthology of Writing and Art by Sex Workers.
In Our Hands is a ten week programme of workshops facilitated by Lisa Fannen, Omikemi and Clay. The sessions explore radical approaches to health and collective care in the context of movement for liberation and social justice.
ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.
Simon Morris is joined by Nick Thurston as they attempt to read aloud whilst peddling on exercise bikes.

A poetic multi-screen performance about “the inadequacy of the arbitrary passing moment and the impossibility of permanence”. About time and change.
