About me
Curator & Project Coordinator based in Amsterdam - curating, writing, producing and coordinating projects within the cultural industry.
Open to opportunities and collaborations.
Currently working on Projects & Communication at Human Activities, an arts institute that tries to make sure that the critique on inequality does not only bring wealth and beauty to museums in global cities, but also on the plantations that have historically financed these museums.
Previously, I have curated two group exhibitions for the photography platform Parallel and held positions as: Exhibition Producer at Zone2Source, Curator Digital Programme at BredaPhoto, Exhibition Assistant at Unseen, and Project Officer at EYE Filmmuseum.
As an International Curatorial Programme (Node Center), MA Film & Photographic Studies and BA Liberal Arts & Sciences graduate, I also have research and writing experience in the fields of art, photography and film.
