Art, Access and Agency – Art Sites of Enabling
Conference, 7 – 9 October 2021
Through this event we seek to raise awareness about difference, diversity and discrimination on and well beyond the campus. In this regard our primary focus is upon the manner in which contemporary art and the myriad forms of practice and research associated therewith may act as a catalyst for change.
