I Hope This Message Finds You Well, Lara Khaldi
Update: 2021-11-05
Description
I Hope This Message Finds You Well is a podcast on curating hosted by Kris Dittel and Eloise Sweetman.
In this episode, we talk to Lara Khaldi about her professional trajectory, from being trained as an archeologist to becoming a curator, or cultural worker, as she prefers to call herself. We also talk about power relations between artist and curator, learning from artists, being a parent or caretaker while maintaining a career in the arts, and collective ways of working. And possibly, we happen to coin some hot new terminology: OOC (“object oriented curating”) and AOC (“artist oriented curating”).
If you have feedback we’d love to receive your email at ihopethismessagefindsyouwell@gmail.com; you can also follow us on Instagram @ihopethismessage and find us on SoundCloud @ihopethismessage. Our music is by Difficult and sound engineering by Nick Thomas. Graphic design by Christophe Clarijs.
