Why do we critique, and who do we critique for? How do we balance tact and honesty when delivering difficult feedback to someone? Is it truly possible to do so with kindness all the time? Join Nabilah Said, Joel Tan and Corrie Tan in this late night radio chat, where they reflect on their experiences giving and receiving critique in the course of their creative practices and other interactions outside of the arts.
