Artists

Alisha currently works as the curatorial assistant for Modern British Art at Tate Britain whilst also completing an MA in History of Art at UCL, both supported by the Rosenberg Memorial Fund.

Prior to this, between 2024-2025, she trained as a curatorial fellow at New Curators, co-curating Duane Linklater’s first major UK institutional exhibition, akâmi- at Camden Art Centre.

2026

In 2026, we commissioned Alisha to run a workshop as part of our Unlocked: On Curation series, offering young people a behind-the-scenes introduction to the world of contemporary curation.

Earlier in the year we invited Alisha to be a panellist on our “What Got Me Here” panel talk during our Youth Platform x Arts Week.
