"I was able to fully grasp what I identify as psychosocial violence and inhumane disregard perpetuated by institutional (mis)management of my PhD experience at UWA" This hit me HARD. Perth can be so incredibly isolating for artists trying to push the needle forward, and Symbiotica was a rare oasis for this. Its constant disregard and finally closure by the university only further cements Western Australia as a corner of the world that is NOT open to cutting edge, vital science criticism and creative practice. Thank you so much for sharing this WhiteFeather! Artist accounts from the inside like this will only become more vital to the history we are all trying to write.
But why though??!! It’s so hard to understand.
