I live and create on the unceded lands of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, and I acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the grounds and waters that I broadcast and travel across. Paying my respects to Elders past, present, and emerging, I extend this warmth to the descendants of First Nations artists, storytellers, and knowledge keepers.

“This building could never exist anywhere else b

“This building could never exist anywhere else but Morocco.” I remember French architect Olivier Marty telling me this during Studio KO’s majestic construction of Musée Yves Saint Laurent Marrakech متحف إيف سان لوران بمراكش‎ a cultural institution slithered across a piece of the red desert. 🧱🌴 Envisioned by YSL co-founder and arts patron Pierre Bergé, MYSLM houses a museum, research library, and auditorium cocooned into a woven-terracotta superstructure #swoon 😍

Back in 2016, I was phone-interviewing Olivier while crouched under a table of books (better acoustics) at the State Library of Victoria—itself a grand space for cultural knowledge. As I listened to him unpack the architectural brief, I imagined how the wind and sand would ricochet against the curved Moroccan-earthed bricks, or how bodies would behave within a jagged facade shaped like a twirling skirt. But I was most thrilled to hear about the interiors, especially a library archive of 5,000+ books on Arabic and Andalusian history, fashion, geography, anthropology, poetry, botany, and Berber (Imazighen) culture + an extensive collection of YSL paraphernalia. Much has been said about YSL’s love for this city; how it introduced him to colour, and how his and Pierre’s former home Jardin Majorelle حديقة ماجوريل‎ (across the road from the museum) still flourishes today as a public garden and home to birds! 🦜🌵💙

Free knowledge is power distributed, and as a child who could not afford books, I found sanctuary in school libraries. 📚MYSLM opened to the public in 2017, and I’m still saving pennies in the hopes of one day visiting a cultural cathedral that has seized my imagination this whole time‼️Swipe for an excerpt of my cover report published in Neue Luxury, 2017.

Back on my BS (black sesame)! 🖤🧛🏻‍♀️
I was raised by a family of creative cooks, so when I miss home, I just swan into the kitchen to summon their energies.

🍨🍪Here’s a rolodex of my food-smooshing experiments with this nutty, fibrous, smoky wonderseed!
(L-R): Black sesame shortbread with miso butterscotch dollop ~ concrete-block black sesame ice cream with raspberries ~ black sesame sorbet with bluegum honey ~ ice cream terrazzo sandwich (combo: black sesame ice cream + cookie with charcoal, cocoa, cherry chocolate, candied turmeric & ginger, white & black sesame seeds) ~ dome dessert stack (bamboo green rice, gulab jamun, ube dollop, concrete black sesame ice cream, charcoal salt)

👩🏽‍🍳Process videos: Creating black sesame ice cream and charcoal terrazzo cookies ~ shiny, voluptuous terrazzo dough ready to pinch ~ all organic ingredients 🖤

My mood board: the streets of Newtown (Gadigal) and the ash grounds of Pinatubo, Zambales (Aetas).

Mason and i during our first month of dating❤️‍🔥#BabyFaces
We met in Redfern, when @masonkimber was searching for a housemate and I was looking for a room to rent! @r_gallo_ (unsuspecting cupid angel💘) introduced us via FB, and even though I missed out on Mason’s spare room, he and I ended up moving in together hehe. And now, we’re swopping avocadoes for home loans / saving up to buy a new haus, eep! 🥑🏡😅

Thank you for five years of nutritional love, Mason 💜🙏🏽🌊🔥🌏🎨💌🎪👽🧠👨🏻‍🎨👩🏻‍💻🪢🦚💐🌈🌪☀️🥭🍬

Baliktad, bees, blazes, beaches, and biennials!
4A Papers: Issue 10 is out now ~ mad love (and L8 N8 marathons) went into birthing this e-beauty with such bright-voiced contributors @loveleorajoy @matt.chun @annetteliu @greenpapayaartprojects TYSM!! 🤩💓

Together, we consider the maxims of loanword languages, planetary care, cultural meritocracy, familial lineage, and archival custodianship. Link in bio to read their super-rad essays and let us know what you think!

🙃 In Letter from the Editor, I uncover the Tagalog word ‘baliktad’ (inside-out, upside-down, reverse, block back). As a kid, I used to rush to get ready for school, so I’d sometimes wear my clothes baliktad/inside-out, oops! This became a running joke with my titas, and so—with my mouth pursed—I’d defensively convince them that, yeah, I wore my shirt like that on purpose (the truth? sheepish accident, every time).

🚗 Slide 2 photo was taken in my childhood neighbourhood in Cubao (Philippines), showing a tiny car blocking a chartreuse-green gate, emblazoned with the yellow hand-painted sign: ‘DO NOT BLOCK THE DRIVEWAY’. Subliminal baliktad move, diba?

👾As we banged ‘publish’ on 4A Papers, I stretched my arms in wing-spanned exultation and noticed my elbow crrrack (sound: banged marble ball). Covering that elbow were tell-tale signs of my yam-purple jacket’s threaded linings; like loosened angel-hairs on textile. It’s inescapable I guess, the way baliktad fits me better, no?

👒 Slide 3 is how to sign ‘this hat was made in the philippines’ in #Auslan. I’m donning a GARGANTUAN hand-woven hat by Filipino weavers (sold by @aban.eco) and wearing my yam jacket the right way for camera (or the wrong way, if we’re sticking to themes)!

Bottomless thanks to @4A_aus for letting me work on dream projects like this! 🙏🏽And to @ellewilliams.studio for housing our words in a new ultra-gorge microsite palace.

Fast forward 18 months, and the Making Art Work project is reborn as a book ~ owwweee! 🤗📒

Published by the Institute of Modern Art, the 246-page compendium documents the 47 projects commissioned by the IMA in 2020, and is accompanied by new writing on MAW’s curatorial pillars. As one of the commissioned artists (i.e creative producer), I made a mini-series podcast about some of the ways artists combat crisis and civic apathy through creative labour, social duty, and collective care (s/o to my Interno guests Sari-Sari Studio, Sara Morawetz, Sarah Scott/Sezzo and Bianca Mavrick, whose spirited conversations with me are featured in this book).

🎊🥂 Meanjin friends, the IMA is throwing a book launch party today 11 September 1pm-3pm AEST with food and live performances, so grab yourself a copy IRL ~ or visit link in my bio to access the MAW projects or buy the book online! #SupportAustralianBooks 📚

As elucidated by the IMA: “Making Art Work proposes an experimental role for the institution as administrators of economic stimulus for artists. Taking place across 2020—during and post COVID-19 lockdowns—the project sees over 40 artists create new works that reinforce the importance of creative labour in a time when the cultural and economic value of art was diminished. Drawing from the politicised language of our current crisis, each artist has been asked to respond to the provocations posed by four curatorial pillars; Unprecedented Times, Industrial Actions, Permanent Revolution, and Relief Measures. Released in four rounds of presentations, commissions spanned new artworks, texts, workshops, ephemeral projects, and more.”

We live in a Victorian-era schoolhouse on top of a

We live in a Victorian-era schoolhouse on top of a hill, so it's super nice to work and cook and read books in a place that was once a site for learning and connection.

Lockdown is a drag, but on the plus side, I’m grateful for the time it gave us to turn this former classroom into our sanctuary for the past 8 months. 🏡☀️💞Built in 1887, Enmore Public School closed 30 years ago when a newer school opened up down the road. The site soon fell into ruin: the walls were vandalised, someone lit a fire inside, and the school became overrun with 1000 birds and 85 stray cats (I fact-checked with the person who eventually lured the animals out - and it’s a wild story) 😅🐈🕊

When the school was threatened with demolition, Enmore locals, including descendants of former school-kids, protested passionately to save it. So a lovely, chirpy man called Ray bought and restored the property, spending his life savings to turn it into living quarters that honoured its history. The bones of the site still remain: the wooden staircases, sandstone bricks, vast windows, and classroom chalkboards, which we now use to send notes to neighbours. 💌

Sometimes, Ray leaves lemons on our doorstep, plucked from the lemon tree in the garden that used to be the kids playground. 🍋 And long before that, its surrounding area was used as a walking track for Aboriginal people to connect with sacred sites, bushland, campsites and freshwater. ❤️💛🖤 I feel thankful to exist here and can’t wait for the day when @masonkimber and i invite peeps over again for noms and cute chats! 🥘🤗😍

Peach season alert! 🍑🚨 Here’s some did-you

Peach season alert! 🍑🚨
Here’s some did-you-knows:

The first ever peach came from Northwest China! 🌱Peaches are a part of the rose and almond family (which probably explains their bummy shape). 🌹🤲🏽 In some traditions, women carry peach blossom bouquets at weddings to attract good luck! Peaches are called ‘the fruit of calmness’ as they’re known to reduce anxiety! This be true because my former housemate @seemeinmysleep surprised me with a peach drawing —and I still have it on my fridge as a lift-me-up (pic 2)! 😶‍🌫️🌈

So if you’re having lockdown woes, maybe grab an essential peach? 💁🏻‍♀️🍑 Need a recipe? Peep this excellently furry book by @dianahenryfood (pic 3)

Also, I typed ‘peach’ into Insta and found this delectable prose and photo by Filipino artist @augustineparedes (pics 4-5) Wow 😭💔 what a crunchy way to end this peach-athon! ❤️👋🏽 #Peach #PeachSeason #StoneFruit #ICantWearEarringsButICanBalanceAPeach #EatHealthy

Le Manteau, the last work of his that I saw in the

Le Manteau, the last work of his that I saw in the flesh, returns to embrace/haunt me. My midnight mind floats to this jovial chat between #ChristianBoltanski and Sabine Mirlesse in 2015, about death—unavoidable, puzzling, elegiac, lingering. 🕳🖤💡

SM: What would you like to have happen when you die?

CB: I would like to be burned and tossed out just about anywhere. Just not in a cemetery.

SM: A garbage can?

CB: Yes, a garbage can, for example. And for a period of time following I would like the stories I told and the works I made to exist and then one day those two will disappear, and there will be absolutely nothing left.

SM: Okay, well that’s a material answer. How about a more immaterial, intangible one? In an ideal scenario, in your opinion, what would happen after you, or I, or one dies?

CB: Absolutely nothing. There will be just a few traces of me in the memory of friends for a little while. And then nothing.

SM: Do you believe in ghosts? In spirits? In a soul?

CB: No but what I believe, which is already a bit dubious, is that you have your great grandmother’s nose and the mouth of your great great uncle—that your face is a puzzle of all these dead people. All these dead individuals are situated, completely haphazardly, on your face.

In any case I believe that your spirit is composed of all these things. That a tiny bit of you will possibly reappear in a trace of one of your descendants three hundred years from now.

The only time my mama wore this orchid-pink cheong

The only time my mama wore this orchid-pink cheongsam set was during her Chinese tea ceremony 35 years ago, to mark her wedding to my step-dad. 🫖💍🌸
Mama lives on the Gold Coast, and I was fortunate to visit her before vaulting back into Sydney lockdown this week. During my stay, she said she disapproved of my choice of home clothes (a mix-bag of cartoon pyjamas and op-shop shirts) and with a high-drama sigh, she told me: “It’s time for you to have this.”

Mama dug out the cheongsam top and pants from the bottom drawer of her wardrobe and reiterated to me the meaning of tea ceremonies—how they symbolise the union of two families coming together; how pink (fěn sè) represents love and joy. 💞💗

She was saving this silken heirloom for my wedding, but seeing as Mason and I eloped (with her blessing), and because family members from both my and Mason’s sides are either oceans away or have crossed over to the next world, she decided to finally pass it down to me now.

I’m wearing this cheongsam during lockdown so I feel closer to her. But also donning these clothes activates a voice in my head, in mama’s accent, saying “remember who you are, simba.” ❤️🦁😆 #Cheongsam #MamaLion #SilkySmooth #Pamilya @masonkimber

Grouped scenes from ‘We come, we eat and we sleep’ by Mysore-based artist NS Harsha, who says: ‘I am like a cook sometimes. I love to make a dish, offer it to the people, and then anxiously wait for a reaction. I know everybody’s tongue is the same, whichever country it could be, so it’s only their balance that matters: hot and salty and all those things.’ 🤲🏽🥭🧄🥚🌶🇮🇳 On show as part of Reality & Invention at @qagoma

Meet Mariam Arcilla. She is a creative producer, writer, and arts manager, and has worked in the Australian arts sector since 2006, and is currently based in Sydney.

Mariam (@marzigold) comes from a Filipino family of cooks and artists, so her childhood was split between selling pandesal at her family bakery (she ate more bread than she could sell!), watching her Lola cook in the kitchen, and helping her father mix paint in his Makati art studio.

Mariam migrated to Australia in 1996. During her decade-long career on the Gold Coast, Mariam co-founded Miami Marketta, a food and arts precinct that connected local makers with the community. She is also a former gallery director and art consultant who has collaborated with artists, musicians, museums, creative agencies, global companies, and libraries on various art and design projects. In 2021, Mariam featured in Disobedient Daughters, a publication that spotlights Asian-Australian writers and artists. She also produced Interno, a mini-podcast exploring artistic value and social duty through a POC lens. Mariam works at 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art, and in her spare time, she profiles Australian and international creatives for magazines like Art Guide, VAULT and Art Collector.
