Photo Fringe 2024

We proudly introduce this festival's four Emerging Curators, who are undertaking a fast-paced training programme in curation and event management. They will be assisting the team, devising projects and meeting industry professionals throughout the festival.

Dominika Jarečná is a Slovak curator and writer based in London. She curates and writes on art, nature, and literature. To her, the two disciplines are inseparably linked and complete each other, both being the acts of gathering. By finding their common language, she lets her non-fiction prose become a literary curation and for curating to take the form of a visual essay. Her interests lie in memory preservation and how memories declare their presence through art. She received a BA (Hons) in Culture, Criticism and Curation from Central Saint Martins before attending the Royal College of Art as a postgraduate, where she studied towards an MA in Writing.
