Bringing together artists, activists, and the collective, Justice for Domestic Workers, this event will explore the relationship between domestic labour and artists' practice, specifically in relation to visibility and value. Presentations and discussion will look at how strategies of art production and distribution can inform and support social movements related to labour and visibility.
Contributors are: Justice for Domestic Workers, Andrea Francke, and Werker Magazine (Marc Roig Blesa and Rogier Delfos)
Following the discussion there will be a screening of Nightcleaners by Berwick Street Collective the Starr Auditorium at Tate Modern.
