Carrotworker’s Collective

We are a London-based group of current or ex interns, mainly from the creative and cultural sectors, who regularly meets to think together around the conditions of free labour in contemporary societies.

We are currently undertaking a participatory action research around voluntary work, internship, job placements and compulsory free work in order to understand thier impact they have on material conditions of existence, life expectations and sense of self, together with their implications in relation to education, life long training, exploitation, and class interest.

Where We Are Now

Where We Are Now, a platform to deepen and amplify the discourse around an aesthetic and political practices in New York City.

Where We Are Now arose from an interest in sustaining the momentum that arose during the time of the 2008 presidential election. We believe this energy is not specific to the particular campaigns but is part New York’s diverse cultural tradition. The website attempts to create a space for artists, activists, and cultural practitioners to share ideas and resources.
