About the speaker
This month’s theme is lost: being lost is a collaboration between possibility and uncertainty. And our speaker this month employs this in his phenomenal projects and work. Kay Rufai is a photographer, poet, filmmaker, author and mental health researcher whose work spans five years and several countries.
Kay explores masculinity, identity, racial emancipation and community cohesion through art, photography, educational workshops and public events. A great deal of his work has directly engaged diverse communities, minorities, refugee and displaced groups of people.
Kay Rufai has recently exhibited his S.M.I.L.E.-ing Boys project at the Mayor of London’s City Hall and delivered a month-long series of workshops featuring collaboratively created poems, images and creative writing with 30 young black boys from Lambeth.
