To Be Cute is a book that holds a series of dear conversations held between 2023-2024 with artists, writers, scholars, curators and friends on how cuteness has and continues to be present in their lives. These conversations shed light on how they use and consider this aesthetic within the context of their professional work, and also their personal lives. I hope they can reveal how much the cute aesthetic matters and holds space in people’s homes, memories, and hearts. 𖠇ຼ.𖠇ຼ.
