Curiosity That Lasts

Curiosity is a gift we give ourselves.

In a museum, it starts with a question—a thought sparked by an artwork, a concept that grabs your attention, or even something that feels just out of reach.

The beauty of curiosity is that it doesn’t need immediate answers. In fact, the questions that remain unanswered often have the most lasting impact.

When a piece of art leaves you wondering, that wonder doesn’t stop at the museum door.

Those questions stay with us, quietly working their way into our thoughts and conversations.

We find ourself returning to them days, weeks, or even years later.

And the artwork that sparked this process? It becomes unforgettable—a marker of the journey it started within you.

Next time you encounter that same piece, whether in another museum, online or in a catalogue, it will bring back everything it gave you: the questions, the ideas, the connections you’ve made since then.

This is the power of curiosity—it transforms a single moment of looking into a long-lasting, personal connection.

This is why I believe museums are so much more than places to passively observe.

When you rush through, or even when you just listen to a guide’s script without engaging, the experience can fade quickly.

So, let’s embrace the questions.

Let’s linger in the moments that make us pause.

Those are the moments that turn looking into seeing and seeing into remembering.
