Launched in 2019, Resolution expanded on FACT’s long history of working within the justice system, inviting four artists to collaborate with participants from prisons across Liverpool, Rochdale and York to create new artworks. The aim of the project is to explore how art can affect public attitudes and influence decision-making. Working alongside Liverpool John Moores University, over four years, our Learning team and invited artists have collaborated with imprisoned people, staff members, and those who influence decision-makers.


In Resolution, all artworks are presented in the gallery as part of our major exhibitions programme, and outputs and learnings are shared with relevant expert audiences: imprisoned participants, researchers, criminologists, and government representatives. In a three-part podcast series, the project participants expand on their understanding of the justice system, the impact they are trying to create through their day-to-day work, and the potential positive outcomes of such projects.


In the final episode of the series, Helena returns to discuss the impact of her work, alongside other artistic and educational projects that are happening in and around Liverpool. Melanie and Rosie offer additional insights on Resolution. Host Paul also takes a moment to expand on his personal story, detailing how his life “has been transformed from offender to PhD student.”


Mentions of those who are or have been imprisoned have had their names changed for confidentiality. Please be aware that some episodes contain mentions of abuse, sexual assault, suicide, and trauma. They are mentioned as part of the professional experience of one of the participants.

In 2022, FACT began a new partnership with The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre led by FACT’s learning team. This collaboration invites artists to work with young people and staff at The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre to create artworks that delve into contemporary issues and draw from lived experiences. The initial outcome of this collaboration is a dynamic podcast created by three young participants – Alex, Mel, and Luke – along with artists from Domes FM, namely Tom Lye and Maeve Devine. Domes FM is a vibrant art and dance radio station housed at Bidston Observatory Artistic Research Centre in Prenton, Wirral. Through a series of workshops, Tom and Maeve introduced their artistic approach centred on facilitating rest, promoting active listening, and exploring innovative sound techniques. This allowed the participants to shed their preconceptions of what a podcast might be and to embrace the techniques found in experimental sound art.

The participants discovered that this fresh approach created a different kind of space, providing a unique platform for them to share their stories. As they experimented with DJing, Ableton, sound and field recording, and interview techniques, Alex, Mel and Luke steered conversations on their own terms and discussed topics that were important to them.


As you tune in, you'll encounter a fusion of distorted sounds from the ward interwoven with the voices of the young people. They capture candid conversations during routine procedures like blood pressure checks, reflect on experiences such as finding the right hair salon to shave your head, and recount poignant moments, including their involvement in outdoor charity events. The podcast concludes with an energetic segment showcasing their newfound DJ and audio skills with a catchy remixed bop about Crocs!


This podcast served as an opportunity for participants to immerse themselves in artistic and creative practices while also sharing personal stories and exchanging experiences. It underscores the significance of storytelling in relation to wellbeing and provides a new space for Alex, Mel, and Luke to share their unique perspectives on their own terms.


The Clatterbridge Cancer Centre Arts in Health programme offers a range of creative activities and performances for patients as well as a collection of artwork to enhance the environment of their centres. The Arts Programme has been made possible through kind donations to Clatterbridge Cancer Charity.

How is trust built and exchanged in digital spaces? In his role as artist-in-residence on FACT’s Board of Trustees, Jack Tan explores how trust exists as representation and as performance, asking how it is enacted between staff, trustees, funders and audiences?


For this online event, Jack has invited Rachel Higham, Chair of FACT’s Board of Trustees, to discuss how we build, maintain and explore trust through organisational work and policy-making. Also joining the conversation will be Jane Wentworth, bringing her extensive experience working within cultural institutions to refine their brand and embody their values.


Performing Trust is part of Framework for Trust, a week of events and collection of resources created by artists-in-residence at FACT around the topic of trust. 


This online event is also part of the Transformer Summit: an international series of online conversations, interventions and workshops that look at how art can explore the social, cultural, economic and political benefits of digital transformation. The Transformer Summit is presented by FACT Liverpool, transmediale and Waag Amsterdam and is part of Artsformation, a research project exploring the intersection between arts, society and technology.

The piece weaves field sound recordings and research into water scarcity and embedded power structures in cultural narratives to examine rising waters and eco-anxiety alongside strategies of hydrofeminism and radical solidarity across borders.


This work is made possible by funding from, and is part of, a wider research project funded by the European Union, called Artsformation. Artsformation has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation strand.

Angela YT Chan was awarded the Jerwood Arts / FACT Digital Fellowship in 2020. Funded by Jerwood Arts, the annual fellowship and remote residency appoints 3 emerging artists, curators, creative technologists, critical thinkers or cultural activists, from any background, to support their potential as producers of the future.

Their unfolding conversation considers how questions of trust are important to their practice, and asks how learning to trust can offer solutions or create problems. Are artists trusted, or indeed trustworthy?


Shonagh Short is a socially engaged artist based in Bolton, Greater Manchester. They make participatory, playful work that uses language in its widest sense, including metaphor and everyday visual language, as a lens to explore class, gender and society. Aesthetically they are influenced by their working-class background, utilising everyday items as materials in order to unpick preconceived notions and distinctions between high and low art, cultural value and societal status. They use humour as a site of resistance from which structural inequalities can be made visible.


Tessa Norton is a writer and artist based in West Yorkshire. Her work spans text, publications, performance and events, playfully exploring cosmic and expansive worlds using unlikely theoretical frameworks, like pop music, teen movies and ghost stories. Her publication The Fields Here Are Full of Ghosts was published by Wysing Polyphonic in 2019 and featured in Wysing Arts Centre’s 30th anniversary exhibition, All His Ghosts Must Do My Bidding. Her writing has appeared in Tribune, The Wire, Doggerland, The Bad Vibes Club Reader, Corridor 8, LAUGH, Hoax and Art Licks


This podcast is made possible by funding from, and is part of, a wider research project funded by the European Union, called Artsformation. Artsformation has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation strand.

Commissioned by FACT, Rituals of Loneliness is produced as part of Young at Art, a participatory arts programme that brings socially engaged arts and creative projects to the older population across the Liverpool Region. It is a partnership between FACT, Open Eye Gallery and National Museums Liverpool and funded by Arts Council England and The Baring Foundation.

Using sensory and creative technologies, Yambe Tam's work explores the evolution of consciousness in living and artificial beings.

The artwork explores the connection between human presence of mind, and the uncertainty of the natural world, following the journey of a whale falling from the surface of the ocean to the seabed. Tracing memories from birth to the construction of a mature identity, to death and the afterlife, the aural prompts connect between and blur human and non-human perceptions. The meditation encourages an inner journey of self-understanding, inviting you to surrender and find comfort in the unfamiliar.

Deep Dive (2021) is exhibiting at FACT until 3 October as part of Uncertain Data.

In this first episode of the series, we focus on the dismissive and destructive ways colonial powers have overtaken the natural world, extending the same attitudes to those who call these spaces home. Foregrounding the importance of empathy and practices of care, we discuss the effects of taking a more mindful and generous approach to the places we live, and our neighbours. Reframing our role as one of caretakers (of culture, the planet, one another), and encouraging positive action and education, we can begin to see the way to a more inclusive form of co-existence.


This episode is hosted by Lesley Taker (Exhibitions Manager at FACT), mediated by Dr. Luiza Prado de O Martins (Artist, Researcher) who are joined by Dr. Edna Bonhomme (Historian, Writer, Interdisciplinary Artist), Céline Semaan-Vernon (Founder of Slow Factory Foundation, Designer, Writer, Activist) and Shonagh Short (Artist, Socially Engaged Practice).
