DEBUT XVII: Made to Keep the Memory Alive was curated by Josephine Mead & Chloé Hazelwood in February 2021 at BLINDSIDE Gallery.
The works presented in DEBUT XVII: Made to Keep the Memory Alive explore notions of the monument, staging, performance, darkness and play. Blurring the boundaries between what is real and what is imaginary, the artists examine the precarity and absurdity of personal experience. BLINDSIDE’s annual DEBUT exhibition presents exciting and rigorous work by recent graduates from Melbourne’s leading art institutions. This year BLINDSIDE is proud to present work by Kurt Medenbach, Nina Sanadze, Ponch Hawkes and Levi Franco.
