Tarik Elmoutawakil

Mentor

Based in: Brighton, UK

Tarik Elmoutawakil is an artist, programmer and creative producer as well as Founder and Co-Artistic Director at Marlborough Productions in Brighton, the UK’s only performing arts organisation dedicated to intersectional queer arts. His current public work is entitled ‘Brownton Abbey’, an evolving Afro-Futures Performance Party that centres disabled QTIPOC (queer, trans and intersex People of Colour).  Brownton Abbey reclaims and reinterprets QTIPOC spirituality and ritual, channelling it into an out-of-this-world, accessible party. Tarik is plugged into a network of disabled qtipoc artivists across the globe, contributing to an ongoing movement to reshape access  and leadership. A spirited public speaker, Tarik uses his joyous brand of activism wherever he can to transform the perception and treatment of marginalised QTIPOC.
