Tilda Swinton’s appearance at SXSW 2023 was a powerful reminder of the importance of collective comfort in our lives. In her talk, she stressed the need for empathy and compassion in our interactions with others, and emphasized the power of art to bring people together and foster a sense of community.

By prioritizing empathy, compassion, and the power of art, we can create a more connected and caring society where everyone can thrive.
