Reimagining Museum Design, With Education at the Forefront
My text at Hyperallergic on museum design, education, and a decolonization program. Reimagining Museum Design, With Education at the Forefront
I am not a writer — or more precisely, a non-writer, in something like Laruelle's sense. Not the negation of writing, but writing that doesn't submit to what writing is supposed to be. No genre, no discipline, no claim on form. Also, it is occasionally painful.
The word subjectile comes from Derrida's The Truth in Painting (1978), borrowed from Artaud's idea of the canvas as more than a passive surface. It's a space of tension — between the physical and the intangible, between what is seen and what is concealed. So, writing is an ongoing experiment. Never a resolution. I have to do it.
