Connections Through Culture Grant
Kutsching! is a collaboration between Kaalo 101 (Nepal) and Outburst Arts (Northern Ireland), supported by the British Council's Connections through Cultures programme.
Join in for Lukamari/Hide and Seek, a special showcase put together by local and international q***r artists as a part of the q***r art residency, Kutsching!
After a two-week residency in Nepal where artists shared their practice, worked on ideas and new work, Lukamari/Hide and Seek has emerged. Lukamari/Hide and Seek questions the timeline of childhood through a q***r lens, returning to a place before constant correction and expectation. Through memories, objects, photographs, movement, and music, five artists explore childhood as an ongoing space of freedom, magic, and possibility, asking what remains of that wonder after we learn the rules of adulthood and how we can reimagine the timeline of possibility and imagination.
Date: 6 June 2026
Time: 4-8 pm
Venue: Kaalo 101
