HOHAH! is a playground where artists and cultural practitioners from diverse disciplines come together to experiment and exchange ideas, while inspiring fresh perspectives on art and culture. We navigate collectively in the space between disciplines–connecting people, ideas, and place. Through artist- and community-led initiatives and socially engaged practice, we cultivate new perspectives on how we create, experience, and understand the world. Our work spans curation, production, research and programming across Australia, Singapore, and beyond.
