I am a writer, curator and educator. My work explores contemporary art and visual cultures in East and Southeast Asia, artists’ moving image, and exhibitionary contexts in relation to cosmopolitical and cosmotechnical thoughts. My curatorial projects have been presented at KCCUK (London), Medrar for Contemporary Art (Cairo), Centre d’Art Neuchâtel (Switzerland), and Post Territory Ujeongguk (Seoul), among others. I am the co-editor of several anthologies on artists’ films, videos and exhibitions histories, including Exhibiting the Moving Image. History Revisited and Cinema in the Expanded Field (both with JRP Editions, 2015). Since 2021 I have been co-convening the workshop series “Writing and Publishing Art in Southeast Asia” supported by the British Academy. I am an Editor of Afterall journal and a Research Fellow at the Afterall Research Centre, Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, and a visiting lecturer at HEAD-Geneva University of Art and Design in Switzerland.
