Bunker Talk #161: Selina Thompson

Selina Thompson is a performance artist based in the United Kingdom. Her work has been shown and praised nationally and internationally. Her practice is chiefly concerned with grief, love, and the world to come, and she seeks to make work that is visually striking, and lyrical, even while grounded in politics. Thompson is the artistic director of Selina Thompson Ltd, an interdisciplinary company creating installations, theatre shows, workshops and radio. She won the ISPA Distinguished artist award in 2023, and her credits, both with and outside of the company include BBC4, BBC Radio 3, The Royal Court Theatre, The Public Theater and BAM as well as theatres across the UK, Europe, South and North America and Australia.
