Art requires an audience; therefore, do not put your feelings as secondary. The practice of looking is a skill. Honed over time with repeated practice. I have always wondered why people don’t revisit art shows. Value your role as the audience, I would argue it is the best thing to be. As the critic, you have to decipher, cite, contextualize, and theorize the art. As the critic, you have to be in conversation with the ideas before and as they’re happening.
