Arts Catalyst Welcome Curator

​​​​​​Arts Catalyst are thrilled to welcome curator in residence Nathalie Boobis as part of the Future Curators Programme.​​​​​​​

Nathalie’s curatorial practice is rooted in a drive to amplify the failings of our work, social, and political structures as experienced on a bodily level.

Since 2025, Nathalie has led on Disability Arts Online’s accessible digital gallery, dis_place, curating exhibitions and commissioning work to foreground intersectional disabled perspectives.

We asked Nathalie about her initial research as part of the residency: “I’m following a thread of thought around the intersections of disability justice, the politics of liberation and crip time. I’ve been thinking about time and crip time for so many years but ironically have never had the time, outside of being a student, to really dig into it. So I’m very grateful to have this opportunity to really get into it and let the research lead the project.”

The future curators programme is a residency programme for Disabled curators within mainstream visual arts institutions. Grounded in disability justice, the Future Curators Programme was founded by Disabled artist-led visual arts organisation, DASH.
