Creative interruptions: grassroots creativity, state structures and disconnection as a space for ‘radical openness’

The past 10 years has seen a flood of nationalisms and an increase of anxieties converging around culturally “different” minority communities. This has been propelled by the economic crisis, media, global flows and processes of fragmentation of the state. Despite all communities producing exclusions, certain ones have been disenfranchised, demonised and culturally pathologised. Uncertainties surrounding immigration, cultural difference and rights and responsibilities are linked to the team’s topics of colonialism, race and resistance. Their aim is to explore the creativity these circumstances produce. Creative interruptions will interrogate disconnection as a site of productive resistance and, through a range of creative methods, connect the disconnections found in different communities. It aims to reveal different senses of community by asking what happens when we look at disconnection through the lens of creativity. The project will also examine the cultural politics at work that invoke and engage with marginalised individuals, organisations and networks.
