The Best of 2022: Reflections on Writing About Art
This is my last post for 2022, and I want to spend a few moments just basking in the sunshine of what I’ve achieved this year. After trying out various writing platforms I started writing on Medium back in October, and I’m grateful to have found a brilliant community of engaged readers.
When I first started The Gallery Companion in 2021 on instagram I wasn’t quite sure what my direction was other than that I wanted to talk and write about art in a way that makes sense, without any of the confusing art speak that you often find in writing about art.
Now I feel like I’ve finally hit my groove. My writing is about the role of art in our world, the ideas, the thoughts and the emotions that art explores. And into my mix goes a dash of politics, culture and history. All of the fascinating, chewy stuff.
In case you missed them or you’ve only just found me, here is a selection of my essays from the past three months. Looking back it’s hard to choose what to feature because I’ve enjoyed researching and writing everything that I’ve produced in 2022. And I hope you’ve enjoyed reading.
If you’re celebrating this week, happy holidays. And I’ll be back in the first week of January.
