Episode Synopsis

I Hope This Message Finds You Well is a podcast on curating hosted by Kris Dittel and Eloise Sweetman.

In this episode we talk to Jo-ey Tang about his approach to being an artist as well as a curator and how these two roles are intertwined in his practice. Our discussion revolves around the question of time, beginnings and endings in curatorial practice, but also as parameters of living a life. How to work with institutional constraints and establish the practice of Slow Programming with the inherent contradictions of slowness and the labour of slowness?
