Anarchy Is Her Birthright, a group exhibition curated by artist April Star Davis, brings together women and non-binary artists to explore ‘resistance, care, survival and feminist refusal, shaped by lived experience and place’.

PODCAST: 8 minutes

Presented at ACAVA Spode Works in Stoke, ‘Anarchy Is Her Birthright’ follows April’s residency at ACAVA, awarded as a prize after her success in the Three Counties Open Art exhibition at Burslem School of Art in 2024.

“We are in a time, globally, when there are some extreme uses of power and force. Part of the job of an artist is to speak about that, and also to document it. In time people will want to know ‘what was this about?’ I can document from my perspective what I saw. What I saw wasn’t pretty, and it wasn’t beneficial.”
