COLLECTIVE INFO
DAM PROJECTS is a curatorial collective founded by Daniella Rose King, Amanprit Sandhu and Morgan Quaintance in 2014. Inclusive and anti-elitist, the collective use temporary exhibitions and events to support emerging, underexposed and unorthodox artists, art scenes, discourses and debates. The collectives inaugural program Sunday School ran from 2014-15 and featured six solo shows from recent UK art school graduates and six exhibitions looking at emerging international art scenes. In 2017, ‘Letter from Istanbul’ was held at Pi Artworks. Comprising of a group exhibition, film and symposium, the project looked at art, culture, history and politics in the city of Istanbul. In 2018 we established ‘No Person’s Land’, an annual residency inviting international curators and cultural workers to think and work with DAM PROJECTS on joint research. Aimed at building an international peer network, the inaugural residency invited Canadian curator and writer cheyanne turions, and was supported by The Showroom, London. Upcoming projects include DAM PROJECTS’ first gathering due to take place in Summer 2018, which will invite activists, artists and cultural workers to discuss and share alternative organising models, and the development of new film projects including ‘Another Decade’.
