The exhibition focuses on gendered bodies which are oftentimes excluded or accorded minor narratives but that are part of the same cycle of life. Of utmost relevance are their places of birth or cultural reference -- Java, West Sumatra, Bali and North Sulawesi. By expanding the notion of the body to that of a home, a body of people or a body of knowledge, the works question the formation of social hierarchies, the transformation of cultural knowledge and the possibility of new knowledge that evolves from the embracement of otherness. 333 Gallery is located at Warehouse 30 on Charoen Krung 30 and opens Tuesday to Sunday from 11am to 6pm.
