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.
Three different performances variously featuring: Fritz Welch, loud drums, guitar, local collaborators, paper, memories, Roland Barthes, string quartets
The second in a series of workshops for workers and non-workers who care. What does the sharing of vulnerability entail? Can such a sharing inform progressive social relations?
A Festival supporting the struggle for Sex Workers’ Rights: share knowledge, discuss, dance and strategise!
Three documentary films exploring diverse realities of sex workers around the world followed by a closing ceremony of the festival.
A public walk from George Square to the Barras market bringing contributions from researchers, activists and artists in a form of live critical praxis
Tiny fragments of sound recombined and woven into spare and precise, violent yet beautiful pieces
Slapstick comedy, monologue, and a kind of live sculpture transformed through video, props, musical instruments and make-up.
Work that focuses in on the static hiss and background noise of recording and pushes it to the fore.
Three workshops lead up to an open invitation to improvise with the festival as concert. The last four hours of the Sunday 14 at Instal 10 were devoted to presentations devised during the three workshops. The material conditions (time, space, facilities…) were the instruments. From there anything could happen.
Sci-fi. After the club. Underground. Counter-narrative. Narrated movement. Cultural resistance. Wu Tsang and boychild’s collaborative performance series, will continue its evolution at Episode 9 with the addition of TOTAL FREEDOM.
Instead of the one-way monologue of normal performance, what would be the result of an actual collective dialogue? Where would it go?
