Talk #169: Campbell Edinborough

Campbell Edinborough is a writer, educator and interdisciplinary artist. He works across theatre, live art, dance and film. His diverse practice is connected by an interest in processes of guiding attention, observation and reflection - informed by his long-standing research into somatics, movement and martial arts. Campbell’s work has been supported by organisations including Arts Council England, Soho Theatre, Resonance FM, Hull Truck Theatre, NYU, Yorkshire Dance and Being Human. He is Associate Professor in Creative Practice at the University of Leeds.

This talk is presented in association with the Performance Research Group.

Bunker Talks

This event is part of Bunker Talks. Bunker Talks invite artists and researchers to talk about who they are and what they do. Curated by the Performance Research Group at Manchester School of Art and the School of English, Bunker Talks explore geopolitical, ecological or economic concerns. The talks create space for critical encounters, presentations, provocation and dialogue as part of a civic conversation.

Originally conceived in the pandemic to explore how artists, writers, curators and researchers continued to make and share their work, live Bunker Talks now take place at The Salutation every month. Since 2020, over 160 talks have been hosted by Performance Researchers and colleagues from across the Faculty of Arts and Humanities. All talks are recorded, edited, captioned and then archived to create an online catalogue, capturing how artists, makers and curators think about the world today.
