“Antonin Artaud Beyond Judgment” is a critical community engagement project with local prisoners which culminated in a performed reading of Antonin Artaud's seminal final radio work, on its 75th anniversary, “To be Done with the Judgement of God”. The main concern was co-inventing a workable radio performance with prisoners while playing with the paradox of delivering “judgment” culture to a prison population who have suffered multiple deprivations in terms of formal education. The goal for Artaud was to embed a sense of suffering and pain in the lived experience of the audience in order for them to re-evaluate their relationship with their own lives. For context, prison radio has become common practice in most UK-based prisons. Arts in prison falls under the collective banner of applied arts whereby the use of the arts is seen as instrumental in enabling personal growth for prisoners.
