Exhibiting artist Frances Barrett discusses her practice with UNSW Galleries Deputy Director, Kelly Doley. Barrett's work lies at the nexus of performance, curatorial models and collaborative processes. Recent projects foreground embodied modes of listening and touch. As long-time collaborators, Barrett and Doley will reflect on the role of collaborative networks, co-authorship, friendship and queer support structures when creating work.
