How to navigate identity questions when your sense of self is intertwined with a creative partnership

My creative partner and I have been making art together for a decade but lately I've been questioning whether the persona I present in our work is actually me or just who I think I should be. We've built our entire artistic identity around this dynamic between us and I'm scared that if I figure out who I really am, it might mean the end of everything we've created together.

Worth thinking about

“Where Are You with Who am I — the foundational question?”
