TEDI Commission: US – A Film by Tobi Omoteso and Catherine Joyce
US - Catherine Joyce & Tobi Omoteso
TEDI Commissions – Project Arts Centre
This film by Dance Artist Tobi Omoteso and Social Activist Catherine Joyce is the second work in this series. It explores the experiences shared by artists from the Black-Irish community and Travellers, and examines the barriers for these communities in accessing opportunities to make and present work.
The film also speaks to issues such as representation, resource allocation, appropriation and programming, and highlights the need for a more equitable and diverse range of artistic supports. In coming together through their consultation work at Project Arts Centre, the two found common ground in their experience and invited a number of artists to join them in conversation around their vision for the future.
