š„I Got Famous for One Post. Now I'm Stuck in It.
Flash Grenades series of anonymous opinion blasts from inside the art world. Real voices. No names. No filters. These views are their own.
I didnāt think much of it when I posted it. Just a reel. Something quick. I was tired. I barely liked it.
But it went viral. Fast. Thousands of likes. A curator messaged me. A gallery asked if I had more work āin that direction.ā Suddenly, everyone knew meāfor that.
So I leaned in. Reposted it. Recreated it. I became fluent in my own repetition.
And now, I donāt know how to stop.
Every time I try to post something different, the silence hits harder. Less reach. Less interest. Less me. Itās like the algorithm punishes honesty.
Iām scared to disappear. But Iām more scared of staying visible like thisāboxed inside a version of myself I donāt recognize.
That post opened the door.
Now itās the room Iām stuck in.
