Just another Day

2 and Half Hours
80 and Half hours (so far)
Today I gathered all the artist packages that have been waiting to be mailed, labeled them, and placed them in bags. I also started to sort through more submissions, many of which will be reviewed next time I am in at Hallwalls.
So far in this internship I have worked with artists installing and also viewing/sending back submissions. If this is the largest part of being a curator, I find that pretty sweet. I mean as an intern it's not like I get to deal with all the things that probably makes curating not so cool.
Lately, since I haven't been around others who are inspired by art, I have been questioning whether I want to be fully committed to making art. I know art will always be apart of my life, and that I will always continue to create it in some form or another, but how often and how much is the question which has been on my mind lately.
I mean would it be so bad to be able to choose and bring the artists you find best for your gallery, instead of being on the other side and having your submissions viewed by a gallery? It's not like I couldn't do both... but one side would obviously be heavy ended.
