Launching our 2022 season is the radiant Kirthana Selvaraj, finalist in the 2021 Archibald Prize (most prestigious art prize in Australia) with her self portrait titled, 'The Green Suit, a Self-portrait'. This is part one of a two part conversation. Kirthana and I sit together in some difficult and uncomfortable topics in order to learn and understand better each other's experience.

Identity as political resistance (Part 2) | Kirthana Selvaraj

I’m a believer in being present—friends and family stop laughing—well, the idea of being present. However, this hope to be present and the top skill on my CV: procrastination, bred a philosophy that Simba, Timon, and Pumbaa would be proud to bear. If something is too big, too scary, or too much time, energy, capacity, or willpower for right now, I deem it a future me problem. Eventually, I must deal with these ‘future my problems’. So, join me as we dive into topics and skill-sets we need to face future ‘us’ problems regarding mental health and well-being.
