And I would really want to hear from you all, what have you experienced as the biggest opportunities and the biggest challenges currently as local artists? Nina, you can continue with that.

Yes, I think the biggest challenges are how to approach curators, how to approach galleries.

Do we have enough platform and support for local artists to develop their practices, to display their work, to work with them? And I also feel like there's maybe not enough education available Or knowledge for artists how to go about being a professional artist because it's a really difficult landscape to navigate.

And you need to wear so many hats as an artist.

You need to be the marketer, the designer, the salesperson, the creator, the stockist.

It is a content-betax person, yes.

and still be creative we don't it's very tough very tough so and and you need to stand out i mean as as a curator i'm talking to the artist within me and i'm trying to navigate how do you how as a curator do you select the work how do you um choose between all of these wonderful artists and sometimes it's just by network or by luck or um So it's, yeah, you need to stand out as an artist, you need to, you know, wear all the hats, be polished.

Nina, what last words of encouragement would you add for this discussion and for the people listening?
