During the residency, Nataša Petrešin-Bachelez will connect with local artists and institutions in Singapore. She will deliver a talk to discuss the necessity to engage various art institutional constituencies through curatorial practice in relation to her latest project: Contour Biennale 9: Coltan as Cotton (11 January – 20 October 2019, Mechelen, Belgium). This recently opened exhibition explores the possibility of opening up institutional borders and render them more palpable, audible, sentient, soft, porous and, most of all, decolonial and anti-patriarchal.
