The next edition of State of Fashion has a focus on presenting contemporary work by fashion and textile makers, designers, artists and/or practitioners hailing from the Global South. Curators Louise Bennetts and Rachel Dedman are aware of their own (privileged) position as white women in the Global North, and for that reason have chosen to decentralise the curatorial team for the 2024 biennial. The 2024 biennial will take place at four venues: the home venue in Arnhem and at three international sister cities. At each “sister site”, an interlocutor (conversation partner) has been invited to develop a project as part of State of Fashion 2024 in their local context, and to be part of the biennale’s extended curatorial team.
