The Art Life

The Art of Aftercare


Listen Later

Do you practice aftercare when the party ends? Do you celebrate when the film wraps shooting, or the book edits are done? Do you let yourself grieve when post-project depression hits?

Dear artists, we must ritualize our artmaking process. We must wield our creative energy with intention. From survival mode to survivor mode: the narrative of our lives need aftercare.
