A wonderful and informative read, thank you. Noah Kalina’s "Everyday" is gorgeously melancholy. I found the changing backgrounds to be just as mesmerizing as his gaze.

Those takeaway points... simple, but more than enough to help crystallise one’s intention

Thanks for sharing some pointers regarding your curation process, Wesley. It's always great to hear how people find and look at a photographer's work.

Thank you for article.

However I would point out that as you represent an institution you are in an unequal power relationship with artists. I would also point out that your work depends on artistic endeavour. You take advantage of and in fact you “feed” of artists and their work.

In your article I see nothing about paying artists a fair wage or price for their creative work.

There is a reason that many artists avoid institutions and “curators” like yourself. Maybe you should start to think along those lines.
