ARTISTIC POLICY
Motiroti creates beautiful art that invites audiences to celebrate difference and connectivity, via an intriguing and open dialogue. The company challenges and teases perceptions of artists, organisations, audiences and individuals. Motiroti supports existing groups to create art projects that excite imaginations, examine cultural assumptions and precipitate change. The work created is fun, dynamic and uses the catalyst of familiar and cutting edge techniques. It encourages and supports the work of new artists and pushes the boundaries of new technology.

REVIEW EXTRACTS

‘Like the recent arrival of the 90-minute play, the 15-minute live art piece combined with feast seemed a rather jolly invention.’ Rosie Millard, New Statesman (Cooked with Love)
