Becoming An Artist: Embodying Emergent Art Making Practices, Kate L. Wurtzel
Becoming An Artist: Embodying Emergent Art Making Practices, Kate L. Wurtzel

This narrative is based on various obsolete philosophical assumptions, and hampers the transformation process, as it distances the population from being part of this.
