GAS is a curatorial collective that explores the notion of balance and tension in ecology, exhibition-making and collaboration. The members came together during their MFA studies in the Criticism and Curatorial Practice program at OCAD University, sharing the identity as first-generation Asian immigrants and women of colour working in the art scene.
