Lian Bell

Lian Bell works as a set designer, a cultural project manager and an artist. For over 20 years she has worked with some of the most significant arts organisations and contemporary performance makers in Ireland. As a designer she focuses on contemporary performance, and often works on pieces that are devised and/or site specific. As a manager she works primarily on one-off cultural events and stand-alone projects, with a particular interest in artist development and in events that bring Irish artists in contact with their international counterparts. She was Campaign Director of #WakingTheFeminists, the highly successful grassroots campaign calling for equality for women artists in Irish theatre. She continues to consult, speak publicly, and run workshops on gender equality in the arts, nationally and internationally. Visit lianbell.com and wakingthefeminists.org for more information.
