About this episode

Chelsea and Georgia discuss the concept of fragility in art and its relationship with control and portability.

The companion podcast to Issue No.79 of The Intersect. Chelsea and Georgia wrestle with a question hiding inside this week's work: when did fragility — a piece that would fall apart if you moved it — become the whole point, and was portability ever really a virtue? A conversation about art that hands off control to a building, a tree, or an echo, and listens hardest to where it stands.
