I’ve honestly lost count of how many museums and galleries I’ve visited over the years. Some I’ve been to just once, while others I’ve strolled through more times than I can remember. Whether it's local galleries or international museums, I’ve always loved immersing myself in art, history, and culture. The variety and depth of exhibitions across different places have made each visit unique, and I often find myself revisiting them to see new displays or to revisit old favorites. It's a part of my routine to explore new exhibitions, and it's hard to keep track when you have such a passion for discovering more!

ome of the most memorable works I’ve seen are ones that really stayed with me. Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel in Rome is one of them. It was such an intense experience because of the security and the way the space felt so special. The ceiling, with all of Michelangelo’s paintings, made it feel like you were part of something much bigger. It was incredible to stand there and take it all in.

Another unforgettable exhibition was Laurie Anderson’s Four Talks at the Hirshhorn Museum in Washington, D.C. It’s my favorite exhibition ever because it showed me the power of multimedia art. I realized that art isn’t just about one thing. It can combine sound, video, and performance, which really opened my eyes to new possibilities. It inspired me to think about creating in different ways and reminded me that art doesn’t have to be limited to just one medium.

Some architectural works have left a lasting impact on me, and looking back, I realize how significant they were. One of the most memorable experiences was visiting the Notre Dame a few years before it tragically burned down. At the time, I didn’t fully grasp the historical importance of the place, but after hearing about the fire and reflecting on its role in the architectural world, I realized just how impressive and influential it was. The beauty of its Gothic design, the intricate details, and the sense of history that surrounded me were all part of something much larger than just the building itself. It felt like being part of a piece of history in the making.

Although it may seem cliché, the Eiffel Tower also left a strong impression on me. It’s hard not to be in awe of it, not just because of how iconic it is, but also because of its groundbreaking architectural history. When it was first built, it was considered a bold and controversial design, but today it’s a symbol of innovation and engineering excellence. The Eiffel Tower is a testament to the creative spirit of architecture, showing how something once thought to be radical can become a timeless landmark that captures the imagination of people from all over the world.

When I visit museums, I take plenty of pictures to look back on and reflect. I usually stroll through these spaces alone, as I find it intimate, healing, and informative. I pay close attention to how the architecture, art, and sculptures make me feel, and I even consider the surrounding landscape and environment. After my visits, I make my reviews and observations when my mind feels clearest. I scroll through my photos, noticing which aspects of the experience stood out to me the most, and that’s when I can truly analyze and appreciate the details.
