Six voices, before their ArtsLink Fellowships begi

Six voices, before their ArtsLink Fellowships begin.

"I think it is often this blurred line between hope and uncertainty. A lot of my work sits with things that are unresolved, like transformed landscapes, gender roles and spaces, histories that were distorted, speculative/ or imagined futures. I am interested in that fragile liminal space of "in-betweenness."

Palestine, Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Ukraine, Hungary, Uzbekistan.
Meet the 2026 ArtsLink Fellows - coming soon.
