Guest curated by Shell Odgers, Badra Aji’s semi-narrative Get the boy a dog and call it a day seeks to locate a missing half-sister to disprove a hereditary love curse, while exploring intergenerational trauma, heteronormativity and the escalating tide of conservatism and queerphobia in Indonesia. Merging personal photographs, artefacts, and a spoken poetic narrative, this journey is realised in a series of drawings on paper alongside a video-based installation.
