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 joyful conversation discussing disability, gender transition and care labour as expressions of virtuosic and innovative skills that make care – good care – possible.
Folk poet, actor and bon viveur Kan Mikami in duo with Jojo Hiroshige, a founding member of Japanese Noise band Hijokaidan.

A public gathering that brings together local artists, musicians, activists, and community organisers.

Christian Bök‘s work spans thrillingly conceptual poetry to body-shaking vocal performances.
From really simple, open instructions, An Unrhymed Chord creates a kind of half-way point between composition and improvisation.
