About the event

MECCA X NGV: Women in Design Commission 2025 | Nipa Doshi
MECCA X NGV: WOMEN IN DESIGN COMMISSION | NIPA DOSHI

💛 Celebrate the opening of the MECCA x NGV: Women in Design Commission 2025, and hear from recipient, Nipa Doshi, in an exclusive after-hours conversation at NGV International.

Nipa Doshi is the fourth recipient of the MECCA x NGV Women in Design Commission, a major ongoing series that invites internationally renowned female designers and architects to create major new and significant work for the NGV Collection:Tatiana Bilbao (2022) , Bethan Laura Wood (2023) and Christien Meindertsma (2024).

Made possible by MECCA’s social change movement, M-POWER, the initiative celebrates the contributions of women in the arts and design, and champions opportunities for women and girls through the power of art, design, and cultural storytelling.


🩵 SESSION TIMES
Thu 25 Sep

💙 WHAT TO EXPECT?

Speaking live at the NGV with Simone LeAmon, Curator of Contemporary Design and Architecture, Doshi will discuss the ideas and process behind the 2025 Commission A Room of My Own, and reflect on her career to date, including the influences that have shaped her practice — rooted in her upbringing and a deep engagement with Indian visual culture.

Includes an opportunity to view the commission from 5.15–6.15pm.


❤️ HOW LONG WILL THE WORK BE ON DISPLAY?

The MECCA x NGV Women in Design Commission will be on display from 25 September at NGV International.
