HOAX

2020-2024

Since its 2020 lockdown relaunch, I have been co-curator of HOAX, a curatorial project dedicated to giving an online, print and IRL platform to work that exists at the intersection of art and creative writing. Hoax is a hybrid of an exhibition, a publishing space, a commissioning programme, and an ever-expanding survey and archive, giving a freely-accessible, public home to bold, new creative work that incorporates text, hosting a digital archive of more than 300 works.

HOAX was started by Lulu Nunn in 2011 to examine the evolving use of text in the arts, and to be a positive, collaborative and emancipatory presence in an increasingly exploitative and reactionary art world. To date, HOAX has presented original works by over 270 international artists and writers, and produced seven free-of-charge print editions.
