Lawottim “Lawi” Anywar

Lawottim “Lawi” Anywar is a multi-disciplinary artist and producer, working predominantly in the medium of music, but carrying experience in written word, film, voice, theatre, community management and education.

Beginning with a 10 year stretch working as a mental health support worker alongside his artistic practice, Lawi has fostered a keen interest in men’s mental health through attendance at workshops and retreats, undergoing his own therapeutic journey, and through direct collaboration with Nilaari Agency and Bristol Beacon.

Now, Lawi runs discursive men’s groups with an aim to examine and unpick the behaviours, attitudes and conditioning that leads to poor mental health among men, and the consequences that follow.
