COMPETITION: It Takes A Muscle (at Rich Mix)

A psychosomatic workout for all the senses mixing animation, moving image, prose and performance. 2018 Jarman Award nominee Larry Achiampong pieces through fragments of neglected colonial histories, whilst Cait Lyn Adamson’s fever dream female gaze reveals one young girl’s burgeoning sexuality.
