Melalui SUAI: The Gaze Can’t Dress Me, Dinda Sulisna dan Istifadah Nur Rahma mengeksplorasi bagaimana berbagai tatapan: agama, budaya, sosial, hingga media membentuk cara perempuan melihat dan memahami tubuhnya. Berangkat dari pengalaman perempuan berhijab, karya ini kemudian berkembang menjadi pertanyaan yang lebih luas tentang tubuh, agensi, dan pilihan.

Dalam Reels ini, Dinda dan Isti berbagi tentang proses Work in Progress mereka serta apa yang berubah dalam perjalanan mengikuti Lab Inkubasi Keproduseran.

Sebuah karya yang masih terus mencari bentuk, sekaligus terus mempertanyakan: seberapa jauh keputusan atas tubuh benar-benar berasal dari diri sendiri?

Participating in the 2026 Gwangju Biennale Academy International Curator Course, which emerged from Okwui Enwezor’s Global Institute, initiated at the Gwangju Biennale in 2008, has been one of the highlights of my year so far.

Across Gwangju and Seoul, we encountered exhibitions, artists, archives, institutions and histories, while thinking collectively about what it means to curate within and in relation to place, histories and contemporary conditions.

And then there was everything else: so much good food, getting lost, long days, laughter, karaoke nights, trips to Olive Young, conversations that went on forever and all the discoveries in between.

The generosity within the cohort made the two weeks feel less like a programme and more like hanging out with friends. I arrived not knowing anyone and somehow left with a new group of friends I didn’t know I needed.

They say, some experiences stay with you because of what you learned. Others because of the people you met. This one, for me, is both.

Thank you to the Gwangju Biennale Foundation, our Queen @yesmijoo  my Chingu @borrattee @nowherejmc and everyone who made this experience possible. ❤️

Two weeks in Gwangju that felt both intense and gently expansive. I arrived with some curiosity and questions, and left with even more questions and deeper feelings — about historical narratives, diaspora, and how we stay together.

Grateful for the chance to sit with histories, share questions, walk through the city, and think alongside people from different places and practices. Thank you for the conversations, the bus trips, the meals, and the willingness to stay with uncertainty together.

Thanks to my cohort for bringing so much inspiration and thanks to our queen @yesmijoo @nowherejmc @fake_as_moon_landing @borrattee and the Gwangju Biennale Foundation team who made this possible❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

Over the past few weeks, I had the opportunity of being part of an incredible cohort of curators for the @gwangjubiennale International Curator Course, coordinated by @yesmijoo. The theme, “You Must Change Your Default,” rightfully echoed this year’s biennale theme, which is “You Must Change Your Life”. Both themes felt like quiet invitations to pause, unlearn, look again, and allow ourselves to be changed.

One question from our first day stayed with me; What does it mean to be a subject of experience? It made me think deeply about my practice, and about the value of not always knowing. As @master_ab reminded us, perhaps it is okay to be an “unserious curator”- to play, doubt, fail, wander, and remain open to what emerges. There is freedom in allowing curiosity to lead.

Gwangju and its people gave me so much; new questions, generous conversations, friendships, laughter, and moments of quiet reflection. I leave with a heart full of gratitude to the Gwangju Biennale, the GBICC team, my fellow participants, and the beautiful cities of Gwangju and Seoul. Kangsanmita🫶🏾!!!
