In episode 464 of the Perceptive Photographer podcast, we delve into an intriguing discussion on the importance of artists looking back at their own completed work. Contrasting the view of individuals who refrain from revisiting their past creations, I try to show that reviewing one’s work is crucial for evaluation and self-reflection. I also talk about the value of self-critique in the creative process and how getting more skilled at self-reflection can drive the power of engaging with the work through multiple voices in group critique settings.
Key Topics
- Never revisiting your own work?
- Importance of critiquing personal work
- Photographs: Deepen our universal view
- Honest feedback fosters community
- Self-evaluation improves collaboration
