Patrick Gunasekera

Patrick Kain is an emerging interdisciplinary artist working in performance, theatre, and poetry. His creative practice disrupts social sites of power and challenges the conditions of whiteness, ableism, and cisheteronormativity to engage in a destabilisation of systemic oppression across different social contexts. This year he was selected as a mentee in Express Media’s Toolkits: Poetry, and he is currently a mentee with the Indian Oceans Heritage Mentorship Program at Centre for Stories, which will finish in January 2019.
