Join us for an evening of playful experiment and serious engagement revealing how artists explore the world through acts of cultural resistance.
Artists include: Mojisola Adebayo, Julia Bardsley, Ansuman Biswas, Tallulah Frendo, Samra Mayanja, Martin O’Brien, Daniel Oliver with Eirini Kartsaki, Florence Peake + Eve Stainton, Lois Weaver and Aaron Williamson.
Curated by Orlagh Woods.
Spread across various spaces simultaneously in the ArtsOne Building, this evening of performances (some duratiional) by artists of multiple generations invites audiences to move through the space to experience live actions as resistant interventions against the new and the old normal. Expect human bodies and voices in joyful, curious and intimate opposition to the ways they are supposed to be. Some performances may include nudity.
This event is part of the Theatre and Performance Research Association (TaPRA) conference @ QMUL, 2-4 September 2026
