Processing the Unbearable, Imagining the Radical

“"Beauty and poetics carry weight. They are how human beings have always processed what is unbearable, imagined what is not yet possible, and kept alive the sense that something else could exist. A painting that stops you in your tracks, a building that changes how you feel in your body, a piece of design so right it seems inevitable and yet somehow vulnerable — these are arguments about what the world could be." The whole thing is SO GOOD. I’m so glad art students got to hear this but think it’s something the rest of us need to hear, too 💙”
