Monash University statement on the Stolon Press: Flat earth exhibition
The following is attributable to a Monash University spokesperson
“The Flat earth exhibition by Stolon Press will open at Monash University Museum of Art (MUMA) on 29 May until 12 July 2025, following a period of community consultation.
“The University concluded its engagement process with relevant staff and students, which has enabled us to consider a range of perspectives prior to the exhibition.
“The University recognises the work of Stolon Press as curator of, and featured artist in, the exhibition Flat earth and its patience while the University conducted its consultations to ensure the exhibition proceeds in the manner and spirit originally curated by Stolon Press.”
