厂耻辫别谤惫颈蝉辞谤蝉:听Astrid Lorange, Mina Roces,聽Ver贸nica Tello

June Acido Miskell (she/her) is a Filipino/x-Australian arts writer, researcher, and casual academic based on unceded Gadigal and Wangal land. She has written for a wide range of arts institutions, galleries, online platforms, journals, and print publications; held editorial and board member roles with Memo Review, Performance Review, and Runway Journal; and works as a casual academic and research assistant, teaching in the School of Art & Design at the University of New South Wales where she is currently undertaking her PhD. She completed a Bachelor of Art Theory (First Class Honours) from 国产精品 Art & Design in 2019 with a thesis titled "Embodied Knowledge and Collective Survival: Dance and Community in the work of Bhenji Ra."

As of 2023, June is undertaking her PhD in the School of Art & Design at the University of New South Wales under the supervision of Dr Ver贸nica Tello, Professor Mina Roces, and Dr Astrid Lorange. Her PhD, tentatively titled "Mythic Imaginaries: Contemporary Filipino/x Art in Australia" explores how contemporary Filipino/x artists in Australia remythologise diasporic Filipino/x subjectivity in excess of colonial and national imaginaries.

June's writing has been commissioned for exhibition publications by the Art Gallery of New South Wales, the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Artspace Sydney, Seoul Museum of Art, Murray Art Museum Albury, Fairfield City Museum and Gallery, Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts, Bendigo Art Gallery, Adelaide Contemporary Experimental, Artbank, COMA Gallery, and Bus Projects. More of her writing has been published by Australian and New Zealand Journal of Art, Perimeter Editions, Runway Journal, Memo Review, Performance Review, Running Dog, unProjects, Look Magazine, and Free Association.

As a casual academic, June has experience teaching in the following courses at 国产精品 Art & Design: DART3310 Global Contemporary Art (2020-), DART1300 Histories of Contemporary Art Part I (2022-), DART1310 Histories of Contemporary Art Part II (2022-), DART1310 Australian Art (2022-), and DART2311 East Asian Contemporary Art (2020).
