adidas Originals Creator Network North 2026 - Meet the cohort | Factory International

The cohort from adidas Originals Creator Network (OCN) North talk us through their new exhibition Common Frequency.

The adidas OCN North cohort are a group of 20 young creatives from across the North West. Over six months, they have created Common Frequency – a free exhibition held in the North Warehouse at Aviva Studios, home of Factory International, which traces the influential presence of music in our lives.

Through Common Frequency, the cohort have come together to interrogate the relationship between music, community and identity.
