Editor: Here we have Christian Lindow's series, "I believe in my puberty," a set of framed works on paper. There's something about the repetitive nature and minimalist presentation that strikes me. What is your take on this piece? Curator: Notice the labor inherent in the serial repetition, the deliberate choice of a modest material like paper. How does this emphasis on process shift our understanding of the "high art" object? What does the artist's hand contribute, and how does that relate to the social context of artistic production? Editor: That's fascinating. It makes you think about the act of creation itself. Curator: Precisely! And consider how the consumption of art changes when we focus on the means of its production. Editor: Thanks for pointing that out. I'll certainly consider the labor and process differently now. Curator: My pleasure! It's all about engaging with the materiality of art.
