Kyra Mancktelow is included in No place for mannequins: Remaking the fashion archive, a group exhibition at UTS Gallery that examines the shifting form and status of the contemporary fashion archive.
In fashion, the archive has long operated as a site of authority, shaping narratives of dress, design, and consumption. Bringing together local and international artists and designers, the exhibition unsettles this authority, foregrounding critical practices that reimagine what is preserved, valued, and remembered.
Curated by Dr Todd Robinson (UTS) and Dr Ricarda Bigolin (RMIT), No place for mannequins amplifies experimental approaches that challenge inherited systems and expand the possibilities of the fashion archive.
