<a href="https://www.lladykitt.com/  " target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Kitt </a>is an artist, researcher &amp; drag king who describes their work as &quot;Mess Making as Social Glue, driven by insatiably curiosity about the social functions of stuff that gets called art&quot;. Kitt invites people to join them in creating installations, interactions &amp; events; using collaborative creativity to (gently) dismantle or mischievously re-craft spaces, systems, and structures they find problematic, obsolete or just quite dull. Things that have happened as part of their work are: ·       Giant origami boat races (“Conny Festival”, 2019, Consett County Durham) ·       A digital “hive” of LGBTQIA+ stories (told through balloon art, song and biscuits, “This, Our Hive Of Voices”, 2020-22, Arts &amp; Heritage) ·       policy changes (<a href="https://www.lladykitt.com/enshrine" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">AHRC funded “enSHRINE Project” 2020-22</a> ) ·        an international, ecofeminist art magazine for, and by, children <a href="https://www.smallbutfierce.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">(&quot;(small but) FEIRCE”, 2018 </a>).
