Speaker: Matylda Krzykowski

"Desktop Exhibition" is a presentation format developed by Matylda Krzykowski in which a curator clicks through files on a desktop, simulating a guide who walks visitors through the physical space of an exhibition.

Matylda Krzykowski is CPT's first guest in this year’s speaker series edition. During specially developed public presentation format “Desktop Exhibition,” curator clicks through files on the desktop, in a manner akin to walking through a physical space and guiding visitors through an exhibition.
