maud. [15m] is a call to celebrate the life and work of the Scottish-Ghanaian artist Maud Sulter (1960 - 2008) who grew up in the Gorbals, Glasgow. Through conversation with Black artists making art in Scotland today maud. considers her memory and reflects on her contributions to excavating history, challenging world politics, and community-building.

Programmer What Stories Shall We Tell? (2022)

As curators/programmers there is sometimes a pressure to justify the selection of the films you choose, and do not choose. In an attempt to release ourselves of that pressure, and to not be constricted to one theme alone, we asked ourselves and each other, ‘What stories shall we tell?’  

Co-programme and co-curation with Natasha Thembiso Ruwona at Glasgow Film Festival 2022.

Programmer Welcome To (2021)

The programme Welcome To aimed to challenge the belief that Black people are not/can not be present in Scotland - temporally, metaphorically or ancestrally.  This film program was in two parts, Welcome To: A Focus on Black Women Filmmakers and Welcome To: Lineages of the Landscape.

We commissioned Funmi Lijadu, Ngqabutho Mpofu AKA ButhoTheWarrior DJ, Jess Brough and Francis Dosoo, to make new work inspired by the programme.
