In collaboration with JIPFest, Tambal Lubang aims to cultivate emerging curators in Indonesia. The mentors, Secret Agents and Boaz Levin will share and exchange about the role of curator, presentation of works, as well as conceptualization and management of photo exhibitions.

Over eight weeks, 12 selected participants are expected to build a curatorial approach and develop the concept of exhibition curatorial projects through case studies, presentations and open discussions. By the end of the program, the mentors will choose a potential exhibition proposal to be realized in JIPFest 2022.
