About the Host

Martin completed his postgraduate studies at University of Sussex focusing on creative methods in social research. After that he spent five years working in global development, completing projects in Indonesia and Palestine as well as the UK.

The communities that Martin has worked with range from refugees and homeless people to women’s groups and young people.

About Futures Forum

Futures Forum looks to create a safe, supportive environment for global majority artists at all stages of their careers. In creating this space we recognise that there is currently a serious imbalance in the representation of global majority artists in Southampton’s cultural offer as well as further afield. Futures Forum was created to address this imbalance and provide a space for artists of all disciplines to share ideas, meet other creative people and hear from sector leaders. This space exists to serve the needs, ambitions and aspirations of its members.
