• (Un)done, curated by Gabby Zhong and Hyunah Kim
  Introduces the work of recent MAFA 2023 graduates from Central Saint Martins. Delving beneath the surface, these emerging artists navigate themes that are as diverse as their backgrounds: memory, cultural identity, the female perspective, corporal disability, and urban decay.
• Corpus Delicti, curated by Ivet Monova
  CORPUS DELICTI, translated from Latin is the BODY OF THE CRIME – it is designed to protect the coerced or those vulnerable to false confessions. Potentially, preventing convictions of crimes not yet proven to have occurred. For this show, Ivet Monova has curated artists with a wide range of thematic practices such as: life cycles, heritage, paradoxes, modern horror, internet esotericism, automatism, boundaries, polarities, folk, loss, worship within a trans experience, and more.
