AGYU Visiting Curator Tian Zhang

During her secondment at AGYU, Tian worked in dialogue with AGYU’s year-long inquiry into the role hybrid identities might play in constituting new forms of cultural kinship and survival. AGYU appreciated this opportunity to share learnings of diasporic forms of curating in Australia and Canada as well as facilitate a robust schedule of studio visits with Toronto-based artists and cultural workers with the hopes of further reciprocal exchange.
