Meet the Curators: Coffee and Conversation for Students

Meet the curators: Coffee and conversation for students

Wednesday 20 August, 1pm

Arts Hall, University of Melbourne

Join us for an informal Q&A with the curators of Air Means Water, Syaza Nisrina, Nadhila Zakira, and Kathryne Genevieve Honey. Over coffee and snacks, hear about the ideas behind the exhibition, the curatorial process, and how the project came together across countries and contexts.

A chance to ask questions, share thoughts, and connect with fellow students interested in curating and contemporary art.

This event is part of Air Means Water, a transnational exhibition that navigates the porous boundaries between Indonesia, Singapore, and so-called Australia. Curated by Syaza Nisrina, Nadhila Zakira, and Kathryne Genevieve Honey, at CAVES gallery throughout the month of August. The project foregrounds shared and divergent histories of migration, colonial inheritance, and cultural identity; bringing together the work artists: Agnes Christina, Fyerool Darma, Amrita Hepi, Megan McPherson, Patriot Mukmin, and Shahmen Suku. Air Means Water examines how geopolitical borders shape contemporary life while proposing alternate modes of kinship and solidarity across distance.

Air Means Water is supported by the City of Melbourne, and the University of Melbourne through the Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF).
