A space for personal introspective thoughts, candid reviews, and musings on the art world, shared in the expressive beauty of the Arabic language. Here I explore art beyond the canvas, touching on the unseen currents shaping art and culture.
“Curator” became a Status Word.
There’s a fascinating phenomenon in today’s art scene:
the inflation of the word curator.
Hang a print? “Curator”
Pick a playlist? “Curator”
Choose three colors for a coffee shop corner? “Chief Curator of Aesthetic Vibes”
The actual labor; research, narrative construction, archival digging, critical discourse, cross cultural engagement… is quietly ignored.
The title survives; the substance evaporates.
