Hidden Lessons
A student-led, pedagogical project that encouraged learners to interrogate their own educational experience: who we learn with, where we learn, and what we learn with in the wake of Covid-19, incorporating objects of everyday life from the collection of The Powerhouse Museum. Developed in collaboration with Lleah Smith, Artistic Associate for The Powerhouse Museum and Our Lady of Mercy College, Parramatta.
Slippery Directions
Slippery Directions was a workshop series and public artwork commissioned by the City of Parramatta Council for Sydney WorldPride, 2023.
Across four workshops held at community centre PHive Parramatta, Nadia invited local Parramatta community and council members to engage in a series of playful games. Using embodied memory of urban space and communication through symbols, workshop participants created an installation of re-imagined street signs. This installation was then interpreted in an improvised piece by a contemporary dancer.
