episode 259 : moments of being

This week Miranda speaks with Shivangi Ladha and Asha Vaidyanath to talk about Moments of Being, an upcoming exhibition presented by India Printmaker House at the London Original Print Fair.

Together, they share the story behind this year-long curatorial process, one rooted in studio visits, artist-to-artist dialogue, and a deep commitment to supporting emerging voices in contemporary printmaking. We talk about what it means to curate as artists rather than gatekeepers, how intuition and vulnerability shaped the exhibition, and why they chose to move beyond identity as the primary framework for bringing artists together.

This conversation offers a thoughtful look at collaboration, materiality, and the evolving role of printmaking in a global context. It is also a reminder that some of the most compelling exhibitions don’t start with a fixed idea, but with curiosity, trust, and a willingness to listen.
