Join the creative team behind our Cultural Bridge project for an artist panel discussion exploring the insights from our international partnership. The discussion will delve into the challenges of international residencies for marginalised communities, and discuss the relationship of queer and disabled communities in the arts. Visual art curator, writer, researcher, educator and advocate, Dr Jane Morrow, will lead the discussion.
University of Atypical and COVEN Berlin have been working in partnership as part of the 2025-26 Cultural Bridge programme. During their residencies, artists Husk Bennett (Belfast) and Chris Yohei Tokunaga (Berlin) co-created new work together with d/Deaf, disabled, neurodivergent, and queer communities in both cities. The culminating work, Sick in the City, is queer and disabled-led, and rooted in taking back public space for bodies and identities which are frequently excluded or made invisible.
This project is funded by Cultural Bridge, which celebrates bilateral artistic partnerships between the United Kingdom and Germany, through the collaboration between Arts Council England, the Arts Council of Northern Ireland, British Council, Creative Scotland, Fonds Soziokultur, Goethe-Institut London and Wales Arts International / Arts Council of Wales.
