Abstract
Siobhan Mullan was Co-Curator, Organiser 10th Edition of the Festival. The 2023 edition of the Belfast International Festival of Performance Art is generously supported by the British Council UK/Ukraine Season, The MAC Belfast, Ulster Museum and University of Atypical.
This year’s edition also hosts an extended art research residency at the Belfast School of Art, Ulster University featuring two leading International Artists Yaryna Shumska and Andriy Helytovych, Ukraine.
About the UK/Ukraine Season of Culture
A collaboration between The British Council and the Ukrainian Institute, the UK/Ukraine Season is being presented in the UK, online and across some satellite locations until March 2023, featuring artist residencies, talks, film, music, literature, drama, and dance. The Season, which has been planned since 2019 to mark 30 years of diplomatic relations between the UK and Ukraine, aims to strengthen and build cultural connections between both countries, while providing new platforms and opportunities for Ukrainian artists to connect with the UK. With the ongoing war in Ukraine, the Season’s theme is ‘Future Reimagined’, focusing on the changed needs and priorities of the Ukrainian sector, giving a voice to Ukrainian creatives, both in the UK and online.
