Paving the Way: Diversifying Audiences in Arts Institutions with Sylvia Morgado de Queiroz
Update: 2025-06-03
Description
In this episode of Oxford Brookes Unscripted, we’re joined by PhD student and artist Sylvia Morgado de Queiroz from the School of Arts, whose practice-led research reshapes how we think about diversity, participation, and belonging in arts institutions. From Oxford to Rio de Janeiro, Sylvia has worked directly with communities to explore what makes people feel welcome in museums and galleries — and what still needs to change. We dive into her collaborations with Modern Art Oxford and Brazilian artist Maxwell Alexandre, whose socially engaged work inspired a documentary film that Sylvia produced as part of her doctoral research. Whether through coffee-fuelled conversations in Oxford or interviews inside unexpected ‘pavilions’ in Rio’s favelas, Sylvia’s research centres on co-creation, emotional connection, and cultural accessibility.
