In this episode of Inside FLARE, I sit down with KYRIANNA, artist, fellow visual artist, chronic illness warrior, and the person standing beside me as we curate FLARE’s upcoming exhibition together. Getting to share this journey with someone who truly understands both the emotional and artistic side of what we’re building has been incredibly meaningful.
What started as an idea has become something much bigger than either of us imagined. Artists and stories are coming in from around the world, and the amount of excitement, support, and attention surrounding this exhibition has honestly been overwhelming in the best way.
Together, we talk about what goes into curating a show like this, why representation matters, the barriers that can make the art world feel intimidating, and our hopes for creating a space where artists living with endometriosis and chronic illness feel seen, celebrated, and connected.
We also reflect on our own artistic journeys, what creativity means to us, and the power of bringing together voices from different backgrounds and experiences.
More than anything, this episode is about community and what becomes possible when people decide to build something beautiful together.
I can’t wait for everyone to experience what we’re creating this fall in New York City.
