Elders, 2046: For Living and Dying Otherwise

Jaunts is an artist, filmmaker and researcher from the Black Country. Their work reimagines public information formats (healthcare service announcements, instructional films and soap operas) as opportunities for rehearsing revolution via camp, satirical and co-operative storytelling. They have an MA in Visual Anthropology, during which they developed Dr. XYZ: A Medical Drag Transthology, a community-made trans health training film later funded by the AHRC x BFI’s NHS Untold Stories initiative. They were participation artist in residence with Dr. Ravi Piccus at Gasworks, 2025–26, leading For Living and Dying Otherwise – a workshop series imagining and recording alternative visions of the British care home, which led them to create Elders, 2046.

Dr. Ravi Piccus is a transmasculine NHS GP in training and medical researcher. Through his medical education, he has developed an acute understanding of the UK medical-industrial complex and, as a transmasculine person, has experienced the discrimination of this system firsthand. He has a keen interest in community-developed knowledge and community-delivered healthcare. Ravi is co-director of XYZ Projects, a trans-led, disabled-focused healthcare arts collective reimagining public and community systems of care through collaborative creative projects. He works to translate qualitative research with the community into education and clinical practice for health systems.

Maz Murray is a London-based artist working across moving image, writing, and performances. They use satire, surrealism and melodrama to explore how constructed environments (New Towns, shopping centres, community centres, imagined utopias) shape identity and desire.

Kath Smith / Public Dreaming is an anthropological sculptor and artist caretaker. Moving fluidly between producing, curating, and set dressing, she approaches her work as maintenance art and a practice of making spells. For Elders, 2046, Kath drew on XYZ's archive of workshop participants' voices, translating them into the sensory atmosphere of a future care home. Her independent work feeds into Public Dreaming: a Manchester-based entity of artists, bints, dossers, and messers who use sensory textures to activate collective dreaming for social transformation.
