Froozan Nazari was trying to find a venue and to organise a show for after the degree-show. I had run an events venue in the past in Hackney Wick and thought I could help finding a place, which I did. Since then, we sat down and started organising the show with Charlie Lang, who had also visited other venues to assess this possibility. 

​

Whereas we knew what to do organisation wise, and were keen but green to have a proper go at curating the show, we felt that accepting the kind offer from Charley Peters to curate it was a good idea, to be able to learn from a professional in regards to curation. This was a good move, as we were struggling to find a concept for the show and were getting lost in a democratic approach because of it. 

​

Charley came up with the concept (you can read the PR here), which we immediately found appropriate and a good solution for the "concept" problem, which was such a large variety of practices. We organised ourselves in tasks, with her active support in some of them.

​

We are now underway with all the proceedings and looking forward to finalise the set-up.
