DADA PENPALS CONNECTED 6.6.22
Currently working with a group of Indonisian and Nigerian disability artists with a view a to exploring different cultures, the common ground and barriers that link and unite us. We are doing this via internet and apps conversations with possibly some art collabration at the end but thats not the main aim of the project, that would only be a secondary bonus.
Here are some fun things that have come from the project so far with myself and an Indonesian artist Hana Madness
i've waited an age,
As i age
But my flowers would still bloom in a concrete cage
Artworks by Hana Madness, and the poetry being lines taken from my poem entitled The Youth Clubs Of Failure
