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.

A drone installation populated by flourescent strip lights working in complicity with analogue radios – “all the lights just do their thing”.

In this workshop we will imagine ourselves as time travellers from a glorious and chaotic neurodivergent-led future.
Thought and action, writing and protesting. A chat with Nat Raha, KUCHENGA and Jackie Wang asking what can be learnt from writing across genres by agitators, activists and abolitionists?
