In 2017, One Tenth Human collaborated with an extraordinary range of artists and scientists.

The result was a Wellcome Collection Spectacular at the Collection's building in central London, for one night only.

The night featured an eclectic mix of performance, installations, games and discussions,

celebrating those who resist, re-write and reimagine masculinity.
