Relief Project #2: Natalie Wynn/Contrapoints

Matthew here with the second installment of Five Big Questions Posed to an Extremely Thoughtful Person. 

Does Natalie Wynn need an introduction? Or do we simply know that every frame of every Contrapoints essay is a gorgeous still life, a love letter to the unknown viewer thirsty for smarts and queerness and justice?

Often, top-tier artfulness will wind up concealing the artist. But despite the rigors of curation and the introversion Wynn ‘fesses up to in this interview, she also communicates welcome and generosity, and it was an honor to hear her speak personally about these Big Things.. 

BTW: here are the five questions. You can think about them too.

• What terrifies you most in these times?
• What is the most meaningful and supportive idea or story you return to for reliable wisdom and relief?
• What is the greatest obstacle you face in forming community relationships, and how do you work to overcome it?
• If you were responsible for comforting and guiding a child terrified of climate catastrophe, how would you do it? What would you say? 
• If your wisest ancestor came in a dream to offer you one piece of advice about living in difficult times, what would it be?
