We spoke to tatum_dooley about why she started the account, what she loves about its “democratic” nature, and why it pushed her to reeducate herself about art.
I have a friend, Grace Eunshin Kim, who’s an amazing painter but she wasn’t getting the recognition that she deserved, both widespread recognition but also within the art world in Canada. So I thought what an easy answer to create an Instagram account which is free, and low risk. Once a day, I post artists that I love and I’m excited about and I think more people should know about.
How do you find and discover new Canadian artists? Because to post a new one every day is quite a commitment. A lot of it is about being ingrained in the Toronto art community so I go to a lot of shows, I read a lot of reviews in magazines, but also Instagram has been an amazing tool to discover new artists—through other people posting artists they love or shows they’ve been to, the Insta Explore page, and kind of getting lost in Instagram art rabbit holes.
