An Invitation to Reflect, Reimagine, and Respond

The Curatorial Fellowship Exhibition returns for its second edition under #SplashCatalyst, an initiative by Gallerie Splash committed to nurturing research-based curatorial practice and material-led artistic inquiry. This platform supports young curators, artists, writers, and researchers across South Asia's arts ecosystem.

After months of dialogue, mentorship, and exploration, this year’s three fellows present exhibitions that challenge conventions and open space for critical reflection.

Signal and Drift foregrounds the ways in which media, spaces, and belonging intersect across unstable terrains—where meanings are transmitted, disrupted, and reassembled. In an age of accelerated connectivity and persistent displacement, this curatorial platform invites explorations of how messages travel across borders, how identities shift through mediated encounters, and how both signal and noise become forms of resistance, memory, and negotiation. It supports exhibitions and research that dwell in the in-between: in the drifting archives, ghosted presences, interrupted transmissions, and the fragile insistence of connection.

We invite you to walk through these parallel shows—each unique in form, concept, and curatorial voice.
