721A7349 copy

‘This isn’t Disneyland’ is the debut single from The Sisters of Invention, the world’s first girl band with intellectual disabilities. It’s a catchy alt-pop tune with a powerful message. With over 50,000 views on Youtube, the video is part parody part rock n’ roll edge, and successfully subverts the idea of the ‘perfect princess’. It’s unexpected and surreal and it challenges stereotypes whilst putting disability voices and faces firmly in the pop culture landscape.

Unlike Jakarta where cycle rickshaws (becaks) are banned for being a traffic hazard, the becak thrives in the city of Yogyakarta and
is considered a Javanese icon. Filmed one late afternoon, this short documentary follows an 81-year-old man who has been working
as a becak driver for over 55 years.

Siamak Fallah, visual artist and religious refugee, is undertaking a performance installation to explore his bilingual dreams as he
sleeps in an inner-city gallery for two weeks. Siamak uses sour orange trees – a symbol of religious oppression of Baha’is – from
his birthplace Iran, combined with water, ochre and paper, to illustrate his dream… a dream he has not dreamt yet.
