Leo Hajducki

Leo Hajducki (she/they) is a Scottish curator and artist whose interdisciplinary practice brings together exhibition-making, sound, writing, experimental making, and research. Working across contemporary art, ecology, and philosophy, they investigate relationships between geology, materiality, memory, time and place through collaborative and research-led curatorial methodologies.

Their current project, Do Rocks Remember Lava?, is an evolving curatorial publication and sonic programme exploring geological memory, extractivism, and deep time. One of its subsidiary workshops, Deep Listening to Deep Time, has been developed with artist Eleanor White and Deep Listening practitioner Ruth Jacobs. The project uses listening, sound, mark making, conversation, and experimental pedagogy to explore how practices of attention might transform understandings of landscape and more-than-human histories.

Leo has recently worked with Offline at Glasgow International and has contributed to Counterflows Festival for the past two years. They also volunteer with Inverleith House at the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh and Jupiter Artland. Across both their curatorial and artistic practice, they are interested in how interdisciplinary and multisensory approaches can generate new forms of knowledge, foreground frequently overlooked narratives, and foster more reciprocal relationships with the environments we inhabit.
