Published: April 15, 2020, 2:16 p.m.

Every creator Spotlight I record is special. But this week's is really unique. While the Spotlight this week is focused on the artist duo known as @Hackatao, my conversation was with the art curator Eleonora Brizi who doubles as Hackatao's authorized spokesperson. Eleonora has solid art world bonafides having started off in the traditional art working for the renowned Ai Weiwei as his assistant. She explained the role of art curators quite eloquently: To walk along the same path with an artist, speak for them while they create, and be their voices to explain their work for the world. Art curators are essentially translators. And over the course of our conversation, Eleonora translated the significance, process, and intent behind the amazing art of Hackatao.
