purpleSTARS are a inclusive research team with and without disabilities/differences who work with art, sensory materials and technology in collaboration with institutions like museums and universities. We employ inclusive design principles and practice based research co-creating displays, events and engagement opportunities that appeal to all of our senses and lead to our aim for more inclusive research and spaces.
The purpleSTARS have collaborated with colleagues at the RIX for many years and are now based at the RIX Inclusive Research Institute at the University of East London continuing our work to make research and institutions like museums and universities more inclusive.
