Podcasts about Ceri

Despite what we're told, websites are not obsolete. Curators still look at them. Gallerists still look at them. Collectors still look at them. Commissioners still look at them.  Quietly. Carefully. Often before they ever contact you. Your website is where people go when they're deciding whether to take you seriously. Social media shows momentum. Websites show coherence. If your website feels overwhelming, messy, neglected, or like a project you keep putting off, that doesn't mean you're behind. It usually means you've skipped a step.   Most artists jump straight to design. Templates. Platforms. Fonts. Colours. And they do it before they've made the harder, quieter decisions. What actually belongs on here? What am I ready to stand behind? What story am I telling now, not five years ago?  So, today´s episode isn't about redesigning your website. It's about preparing for it.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Artist websites still matter - curators, gallerists, commissioners, and collectors actually use them.  Your website isn't dead. It's quietly doing its job when the right people are paying attention. Your website is not a performance space, but a catalogue of your strongest thinking. It is not an archive. This is a selection of your best work - If someone only ever saw this work, they should understand the kind of artist you are. I don't want anyone landing on your site and thinking, well, now what? So, decide before you design how people can connect with you. This episode is about deciding what needs to be included on your site. The next one is about shaping. BEST MOMENTS “Ask yourself something important - if someone only saw these pieces, would they understand what kind of artist I am?” “Have a portrait image of yourself, ideally in your studio or somewhere that feels human. Smiley helps, warm helps, approachable helps. People want to know who they're connecting with. They don't need mystery here.” “A blank contact page with just an email address or an Instagram handle doesn't feel welcoming. It feels like a closed door.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She has sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

durée : 00:12:48 - Les Enjeux internationaux - par : Astrid de Villaines - Le 22 février 2026, l'armée mexicaine, aidée par le renseignement américain, a tué "El Mencho", chef du cartel de Jalisco. Sa mort a déclenché 252 blocages, des centaines de vols annulés et 73 morts. Mais, éliminer un chef suffit-il à démanteler le cartel ou relance-t-il la violence ? - réalisation : Félicie Faugère - invités : David Recondo Chercheur au CERI de Sciences Po

What if artists aren't here to fix the world, but to reveal what's really going on inside it. In this episode of Extraordinary Creatives, I'm joined by Filipa Ramos, a curator, writer, and educator whose work reframes art not as commentary on ecology, but as an ecological practice in itself. Filipa is Artistic Director of LOOP Festival Barcelona, Lecturer at the Academy of Art and Design in Basel, and the author of The Artist as Ecologist, Contemporary Art, and the Environment. In this conversation, Filipa shares vivid examples of inspiring artists and artworks that help us think differently about our relationship with animals and nature. We talk about why artists are often better at raising problems than offering fixes. Why responsibility can immobilise creativity. How beauty, affect, and emotion still matter. And how working relationally, slowly, and collaboratively can be a powerful alternative to extractive, spectacle-driven models of success. This conversation is for artists who feel the weight of responsibility and expectation. For anyone worried their work isn't doing enough - for those searching for ways to make art that is rigorous, ethical, and deeply alive. KEY TAKEAWAYS Art does not need to rush toward answers. Your work does not need to explain itself in a single sentence to be valid; it's allowed to be complex, relational, and full of questions that unfold over time. Ecology isn't a theme you illustrate; it's a way of relating – letting the places you move through, and the animals and people you share them with, reshape what you notice and how you see it. The promise of big institutions can be hollow. Often, real agency comes through the platforms you build with others, not the ones that “choose” you. BEST MOMENTS “Artists are not here to provide solutions, but to complicate the story. To expose fragility. To create space for shared sensing, shared listening, shared not knowing.” “That's why art is so important. It's not trying to remediate. It's not trying to provide a simple answer. It's attempting to find alternatives.” “The most meaningful, long-lasting work often happens outside the biggest institutions, through collaboration, care, and time.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.instagram.com/filipaaaaaaaaaaa https://loop-barcelona.com https://www.fhnw.ch/de/personen/filipa-ramos PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Today, Ceri talks to those of you who know exactly what they need to do but still can't quite bring themselves to do it. Not because you don't care. Not because you're incapable. But because the task feels loaded.  It might be an email you keep rewriting. A proposal you keep circling. A conversation you know you need to have. You stay busy. You prepare. You research. You tweak. And somehow the hardest thing never quite gets done. It's a common experience for so many of the artists Ceri works with. So, you only need to listen in to find out how to get the things you´re avoiding done. KEY TAKEAWAYS We tend to think prioritising is a logical skill. Decide what matters most. Do that first - In real life, especially in creative work, prioritisation is emotional. When a task carries emotional weight, the brain treats it differently. When you avoid a task, it's rarely about laziness - it's your nervous system protecting you from something that feels risky.   You don't need more discipline; you need systems that fit your brain: visible time slots, clear steps, templates, and processes to follow. The fewer decisions you have to make, the better. Separating thinking from doing and working alongside others makes emotionally heavy tasks feel doable, not overwhelming.   BEST MOMENTS “Difficulty prioritising isn't about knowing what matters. It's about regulation. Attention, emotion, and effort are linked.” “Make time visible. Short defined time blocks with a timer help counter the feeling that a task is endless. When time is visible, the brain can relax.” “Separate thinking from doing.” “Use a shared presence, working alongside someone else, even silently, helps many people stay anchored. This is often called body doubling.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She has sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

Berlīnē turpinās Berlīnes starptautiskais kinofestivāls, kurā jau notikusi domapmaiņa par kino un politiku. Festivāla konkursa programmā ir 22 filmas, un šonedēļ tiks sadalīti zelta un sudraba lāči. Kinokritiķe Dārta Ceriņa dalās pārdomās par jau redzētajām filmām un kopējo noskaņu festivālā. Iespaidos dalās arī studijas „Lokomatīve” producents Dominiks Jarmakovičs, kurš industrijas kopražojumu sadaļā strādāja ar Signes Baumanes topošo filmu „Karmiskais mezgls”.

Today's episode brings together two extraordinary creatives whose work has helped shape contemporary culture through a shared commitment to curiosity, counterculture, and championing unique voices. Ceri is joined by sisters Francesca Gavin and Seana Gavin, each working across different mediums but united by a belief in following instinct and staying close to what feels urgent and alive. Francesca is one of the most influential figures shaping how contemporary art is written about and presented today. She is Director of Visual Arts at Murmur, Editor-in-Chief of EPOCH, and a regular contributor to publications including the Financial Times. Her curatorial work spans major international contexts, from co-curating Manifesta 11 in Zurich to exhibitions at institutions such as Somerset House and the Palais de Tokyo. She is the author of eleven books on art and visual culture and has hosted Rough Version on NTS Radio for the past nine years, exploring the intersections of art and music. Seana is a London-based artist working primarily in collage, creating dreamlike worlds from vintage photographic material where past and future collide. Her work has been exhibited internationally, from Somerset House and the Serralves Foundation to the Nobel Prize Museum in Stockholm, with solo shows in Paris and London. Alongside this, her work features in major publications, brand collaborations, and collections including Soho House worldwide. Her photography monograph Spiralled, published by IDEA Books, is now in its fourth edition. In this conversation, they talk about creative longevity, instinct, and how to build a practice that remains porous, rigorous, and true over time. KEY TAKEAWAYS Creative longevity isn't about having a perfect plan. It's about staying close to what you're genuinely curious about, paying attention to what keeps returning in your life, and trusting those repetitions enough to follow them. Work becomes more resilient when different strands feed one another - writing into curating, music into thinking, collage into archives, archives back into books and shows. BEST MOMENTS “For me, personally, originality is that unique point of view or something fresh that they're saying - there's often a spirit in there that you can sense in the way something's been made.” ““It's very intuitive. It's almost like I'm going into a meditative state… I gather up lots of material that might fit in with that imaginary world… and then something starts to happen.” RESOURCES https://www.presentfuture.be https://www.francescagavin.com https://www.instagram.com/seanagavin https://murmur.earth HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

There is something quietly brutal about making work that only exists for a day. You build it. You rehearse it. You hold your nerve. The room fills. The moment happens - And then everyone goes home. You are left standing in the afterglow asking a question most artists feel ashamed to ask. How does something this ephemeral actually support my life? Not just my reputation. Not just my sense of meaning. My ability to keep making work. Today, Ceri talks about how one-off events, performances, and live moments can generate income and momentum without turning your practice into merch, without exhausting your audience, and without betraying the integrity of the work. This is about designing afterlives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Artists can sell from one-off events without cheapening the work, overpromoting, or burning out. They can design afterlives for ephemeral work, where income, integrity, and longevity can sit side by side. Think about the entire life cycle of a one-off event and where sales can happen quietly, intelligently and with integrity before and during the event. -  You're not selling the event; you're selling what the event activates. You only need a small, aligned audience, 10–30 people who genuinely understand and care about your work, combined with simple release windows after an event, to sustain an ephemeral practice. BEST MOMENTS “You don't want to flatten something complex into a product, but you also can't afford for every major piece of work to disappear without trace.” “Many artists miss a trick because they think selling only happens after the applause. It doesn't. Before the event, the work is already alive in other forms.” “If an event cannot produce anything that can be held, shared or lived with afterwards, institutions can't sustain it, and collectors can't support it.” EPISODE RESOURCES Ep 166 - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-why-and-what-of-hosting-your-own-artist/id1709105337?i=1000741761586 Ep 167 - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/planning-the-how-turning-intention-into-a/id1709105337?i=1000742246860 Ep 168 - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/what-happens-after-turning-one-evening-into-long-term/id1709105337?i=1000742648123 PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Galīsiešu režisora Olivera Lašes tuksneša odiseja "Sirāts" – viena no radikālākajām pērnā gada Eiropas filmām, transam līdzīga kino pieredze, kas meistarīgi savij ģimenes un pasaules gala tēmas. Saruna ar režisoru Oliveru Laši (Oliver Laxe) un galveno aktieri Serdži Lopesu (Sergi López) Eiropas Kino akadēmijā Berlīnē. Vai kino var kļūt par rituālu pieredzi un novest skatītāju līdz katarsei? Par to saruna ar diviem spožiem Eiropas māksliniekiem, kuru balsis šais platuma grādos daudz nav skanējušas. Divas personības, kas savās mājās komentārus neprasīja agrāk, bet līdz ar filmu „Sirāts” ir kļuvušas pazīstamas drosmīga kino mīļiem daudzviet pasaulē. Kino apskatnieki to mēdz dēvēt par vienu no pērnā gada radikālākajām filmām. Par katarses ceremoniju. Par nāves deju tuksnesī. Galīsiešu režisora Olivera Lašes filma „Sirāts” vienaldzīgu neatstāj, tomēr to skatīties – vai drīzāk just – nav viegli. Tā caururbj skatītāju ne vien ar skaudriem sižeta pavērsieniem, bet visupirms – ar pulsējošiem tehno ritmiem un elpu aizraujošiem Marokas tuksneša skatiem. Filma „Sirāts” pērn ieguva Kannu kinofestivāla Žūrijas balvu un tagad pretendē uz diviem Oskariem – par labāko ārzemju filmu un labāko skaņu. „Sirāts” saņēma arī virkni balvu Eiropas Kinoakadēmijas ceremonijā šā gada janvārī, galvenajās kategorijās gan piekāpjotie, kinokritiķes Ditas Rietumas vārdiem, „gaumīgajai mērenībai” – norvēģu filmai „Sentimentālā vērtība”. Bet „Sirāts” turpina likt par sevi runāt un no 20. februāra filmu varēs skatīties arī Latvijas kinoteātros. Slava režisoram Oliveram Lašem seko jau kopš viņa pirmās pilnmetrāžas filmas „Jūs visi esat kapteiņi”, kas 2010. gadā tika pirmizrādīta Kannu kinofestivālā un saņēma Starptautiskās Kinokritiķu federācijas (FIPRESCI) balvu. Kannās Laše ir atgriezies arī ar savām nākamajām filmām un nekad nav aizbraucis mājās tukšām rokām. Viņa ceturtā filma „Sirāts” ieguva Kannu kinofestivāla Žūrijas balvu.  Olivers Laše ir dzimis Francijā, bet viņa vecāki ir no Galīsijas. Režisors arī atgriezies uz dzīvi Galīsijā Spānijas ziemeļrietumos un arī mūsu sarunā uzsver, ka galīsiešu mantojums viņam ir ļoti svarīgs. Mēs tiekamies nelielā žurnālistu lokā īsi pirms Eiropas Kinoakadēmijas balvu pasniegšanas Berlīnē. Laše ir neparasta personība ar spēcīgu vizuālo tēlu: viņš ir divus metrus garš (savulaik nopietni trenējies basketbolā), ar gariem, tumšiem pāri mugurai viļņojošiem matiem un fotomodeļa skatienu. Viņš studē geštaltterapiju, ir mistiķis un savā domu pasaulē harizmātiski ievelk arī apkārtējos.  Kad Lašem jautā par sadarbību ar dīdžejiem filmas „Sirāt” tapšanā, 43 gadus vecais režisors rāmi atlaižas krēslā, un ir sajūta, ka interviju telpā ienāk kaut kas no reiva noskaņas. „Pirmkārt, jums jāsaprot, ka es filmas kadrus vispirms izdejoju. Es pats devos uz reiviem tuksnesī. Starp citu, pats piecus gadus dzīvoju Marokā. Un filmas scenārijs pamazām tapa manā galvā, kamēr es dejoju,” sarunu uzsāk Olivers Laše. „Arī reālais scenārija rakstīšanas process ir ļoti atmosfērisks. Un mūzika ir atmosfēra. Domāju, ka mans jūtīgums kā māksliniekam ir ļoti saistīts ar skaņu, ar šo slāņaino attēla un skaņas struktūru. Manos scenārijos vienmēr ir saites uz mūziku. Šajā filmā es negribēju strādāt ar komponistu, bet gan ar aktīvu mūziķi. Veicu atlasi, un Kangdings Rejs (Kangding Ray) izrādījās labākais. Man vajadzēja kādu, kurš spēj veidot dialogu ar šo katartisko tehno mūziku, kas ir cieši saistīta ar tautas mūziku, bet kurš vienlaikus spētu radīt arī ēteriskāku, ambientāku mūziku.”     Par savu gada filmu „Sirātu” nosauca arī kino kritiķe Dārta Ceriņa, kad mūsu raidījumā „Kur kritiķiem nav vietas” kopsavilka pērnā gada kino ražu.

L'émission 28 minutes du 10/02/2026 Cuba et Alaska : des rires comme des cris de vie sur le front ukrainien Yulia, alias “Cuba”, et Oleksandra, alias “Alaska”, sont deux amies, deux “soeurs d'armes”, secouristes sur le front en Ukraine. Aujourd'hui, la dernière ne peut plus aller sur le terrain après avoir été blessée dans une attaque de drones, mais elle s'occupe à présent de la réinsertion des soldats traumatisés. Elles opéraient ensemble dans les environs de Kharkiv, afin d'évacuer les blessés, civils comme militaires, et leur prodiguer les premiers soins. Le réalisateur Yegor Troyanovsky a réalisé un documentaire, “Cuba et Alaska”, diffusé le 26 février sur arte et déjà disponible sur arte.tv. Les deux amies sont nos invitées ce soir. Japon : poussée nationaliste et risque d'escalade en Asie-Pacifique ? Le 8 février, les élections législatives anticipées au Japon ont été remportées par le PLD, parti ultra-nationaliste de la première ministre Sanae Takaichi, qui a obtenu à lui seul une majorité des deux tiers à la chambre basse du Parlement. Sanae Takaichi a émis son souhait de modifier l'article 9 de la Constitution japonaise qui garantit l'engagement pacifique du Japon et limite ses capacités militaires. Elle a prévenu, dès novembre, que le Japon pourrait intervenir militairement en cas d'attaque chinoise sur Taïwan. Hier, elle s'est dit tout de même ouverte au dialogue avec Pékin à ce sujet. De l'autre côté du Pacifique, les États-Unis souhaitent renforcer leur relation avec le Japon pour faire face à leur adversaire commun, la Chine, ce qui pourrait modifier les équilibres de la région. On en débat avec Karoline Postel-Vinay, directrice de recherche au Ceri, spécialiste du Japon, Sophie Boisseau du Rocher, géopolitologue, spécialiste de l'Asie du Sud-Est et Pierre Grosser, historien, spécialiste des relations internationales. Enfin, Xavier Mauduit revient sur l'annonce du gouverneur de la Banque de France de quitter l'institution pour rejoindre la fondation Apprentis d'Auteuil dont il nous raconte l'origine. Marie Bonnisseau s'intéresse à la polémique qui entoure les médailles des JO d'hiver 2026 qui se sont cassées peu de temps après les premières victoires des athlètes. 28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.

Today, I am joined by Marcel Baettig, artist, cultural leader, and founder and CEO of Bow Arts, one of London's most influential arts and education charities. Over three decades, Marcel has quietly built a values-led social enterprise that provides affordable studios and housing for artists, reaches tens of thousands of young people, and continually reinvests in local communities. This conversation isn't just about scale or success. It´s about precarity, why artists need infrastructure as much as inspiration, and how Marcel's own experience of working as an artist shaped Bow Arts. We explore leadership without ego, the long game of cultural change, and why we need to stop treating artists as an afterthought in regeneration. This episode is for anyone who's ever felt the system is stacked against them - and wondered what it looks like to build a different one. KEY TAKEAWAYS We need to stop accepting scarcity as inevitable, to question who systems are really designed for - building a better art world is not a theoretical exercise. It's a daily practice. Sustainable creative lives are built through shared responsibility and leaders who remember what it feels like to be at the kitchen table wondering how the rent will get paid and still choosing to make the work. If we want artists to survive, we must design practical, long-term infrastructure - affordable space, stable income pathways, and owned assets, not just offer prestige moments or short-term opportunities. BEST MOMENTS “Artists thrive when they are trusted, resourced, and rooted in their communities.” “Artists don't just need opportunities. They need conditions. Time. Space. Stability and a sense their contribution to society is not decorative, but essential.”   THE GUEST Marcel Baettig is the Founder and CEO of Bow Arts, a pioneering London charity providing affordable, sustainable spaces for artists to live and work while contributing to their local communities. Originally trained as an artist, he founded Bow Arts in 1994, and it now supports over 1,100 artists across London, runs a major learning programme that reaches tens of thousands of young people, and reinvests significant funds into local cultural life. He is also a founding director of the National Federation of Artist Studio Providers and has advised bodies including the Mayor of London, Arts Council England, and DCMS on creative workspace and cultural regeneration.  https://www.linkedin.com/company/1639152 https://www.facebook.com/bowarts/?locale=en_GB https://bowarts.org/ HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Welcome to episode 179 of the Extraordinary Creatives podcast - Should You Quit Your Job to Be an Artist?  There's a moment every artist fantasises about. The email sent. The notice handed in. The clean break. Finally, time, headspace, freedom. But more time doesn't automatically mean better work. Sometimes it means more fear. So, Should you give up your full-time job to pursue your art? Not in theory. Not in Instagram-caption wisdom. But in real life, with real nervous systems, real rent, real doubt, and real ambition. This episode was sparked by a conversation inside her Artist Mastermind Circle.  An artist who'd built a successful business alongside his practice. Financially stable. Thoughtful. Clear-eyed. And still asking himself the hardest question of all. Is now the moment to make a clean break?  KEY TAKEAWAYS Quitting your job won't magically fix your practice. It might give you space.It might also give you anxiety, comparison, and a nervous system in overdrive. Before you burn the bridge, build the baton. Steady the work. Strengthen the support. Then decide. Anxiety has a way of shrinking creativity. It narrows risk. It softens ambition. It pushes you towards safer work, not braver work. That's not a moral failure, that's biology. Before you quit, make sure your work is strong, you're truly committed to sharing it and ready for the time and energy doing that takes. Ensure your inner world is steady, you're supported, and you've tested that your art can actually sustain you. Don't jump; build the bridge. BEST MOMENTS “More time doesn't automatically mean better work. Sometimes it means more fear.” “A sustainable creative career isn't built on bravery alone. It's built on emotional regulation. Your thoughts affect your feelings. Your feelings affect your actions. Your actions create your results.” “Can you manage your inner weather when doubt hits? Do you have tools to regulate yourself, or do you collapse into self, judgement and comparison and shrink?” “The lone, brave warrior fantasy is seductive. And dangerous. It's bullsh**t. No artist gets there alone.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She has sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

durée : 00:58:16 - Cultures Monde - par : Julie Gacon, Mélanie Chalandon - Pour la première fois depuis dix ans, l'armée syrienne est partie à la reconquête du nord-est du pays, contrôlé par les Kurdes. Pour cette minorité qui jouissait jusqu'ici d'une autonomie de fait, cette offensive marque le début d'une intégration politique et militaire à l'État central. - réalisation : Vivian Lecuivre - invités : Gilles Dorronsoro professeur de sciences politiques à l'université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne; Iris Lambert doctorante au CERI, journaliste indépendante; Cédric Labrousse doctorant à l'EHESS

Today's episode is with the extraordinary Eva Sajovic, an artist whose art works provoke questions about labour, value, and exchange. We talk about how growing up with her grandma in the countryside in Slovenia shapes not just what she makes, but how she makes it and how that early encounter with political rupture still informs her resistance to spectacle, speed, and extractive systems.  We unpack the emotional, ethical, and practical labour beneath participatory work, and talk candidly about teaching, money, sustainability, and authorship. Eva shares what shifted during her British School at Rome fellowship, and what it takes to build a practice that can hold complexity without collapsing. She also reflects on joining the Artist Mastermind Circle, and why vulnerability is essential to getting the work into the world. KEY TAKEAWAYS Eva´s childhood experiences of scarcity and playing in freedom taught her to explore and be resourceful and that “makeshift” muscle is still at the core of her work.  When you move out of your body and into your head to “solve” the work, it tends to die. Instead let materials, repetition, instinct and sensation lead. Often, the images and ideas are already in your body, waiting for the right process to draw them out. If you work with people, factor in the emotional and ethical labour as part of the project, not an add-on. Build in support, debrief time, and clear roles.  BEST MOMENTS “Art is really about deep care and attention. About what you offer and what you are willing to hold.” “The images are in my body, not somewhere else. They are inside and they come out.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.evasajovic.co.uk https://www.instagram.com/eva_sajovic https://www.arts.ac.uk/whats-on/eva-sajovic-rise-and-fall-of-a-temple PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Today we're getting into co-representation, the realities of working with more than one gallery, and how to navigate it without damaging the relationships you've worked so hard to build. You've built a body of work that has momentum. You've shown commitment to your gallery. You've done the shows, the fairs, the dinners, the follow-ups. And now you feel ready to build internationally. Not as a vanity move. Not because you're bored. But because your work feels ready to travel, and because you understand that long-term sustainability often requires more than one market.  So, you raise the question with your gallery. And instead of traction, you get drag. The response isn't hostile. It's not a no. It's just… slow. This is where many artists start to doubt themselves. Or worse, start making moves quietly, without support, because waiting feels unbearable. This episode is for that moment. KEY TAKEAWAYS Wanting to expand internationally does not make you impatient or ungrateful, but moving without strategy, clarity or the consent and co-operation of your existing gallery can undo years of careful relationship building. Co-signing you into another territory carries real reputational risk for your gallery and for you and introduces complexity. Instead of quietly scrambling behind your gallery's back, ask for a focused meeting, lay out why this territory and why now, and work with them to define clear criteria, a realistic timeline and a small pilot so co-representation becomes a shared, strategic project rather than a secret escape plan. Use the scripts Ceri shares to help you. BEST MOMENTS “Joint representation only works when there is deep trust, transparency and aligned strategy.” “Your primary gallery should lead on sales strategy and pricing coherence… This coherence is what builds confidence and protects your long-term value. “If the gallery is not acting, you need clarity, not patience without end. So, step one, ask for a decision, not a discussion.” HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She has sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

This week's podcast guest is the extraordinary David Horvitz, an artist whose work has been exhibited at and collected by major institutions around the world. Witty, poetic, and nomadic, David's work traverses photography, artist books, performance, mail art, sound, the internet, food, and natural environments, engaging systems of language, time, and networks. We talk about why artists should resist being burdened by identity or authorship, what it means to let work travel without you, why erasure can be as generative as making, and how attention, patience and trust shape a long creative life. This is an invitation to rethink how art moves, how ideas land, and why not everything needs to be planned and held tightly to matter. It's juicy, so I hope you enjoy it! KEY TAKEAWAYS You don't need a tidy label or style. Let your work move across mediums. Consistency of spirit matters more than a fixed “brand.” Protect your ability to change direction, even if it risks sales. Stop over managing meaning. Allow your work to circulate, mutate, and find its own audiences in its own time. Trust that small gestures, made with intention, can ripple far beyond what we can see. David reminds us that nerves and doubt aren't problems to fix, but raw material: use that nervous energy, bounce half-formed ideas off people, and let that call-and-response sharpen what the work really wants to be. BEST MOMENTS “You don't have to be burdened by the image you've created of yourself. You could start over.” “Artists need to be inconsistently consistent, if you like, in order to have freedom to kind of roam and be like a free-range chicken.” “Once the work leaves your hands, you don't get to control how it's held.” EPISODE RESOURCES http://www.davidhorvitz.com/ https://www.instagram.com/davidhorvitz/?hl=en PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Regulation is a creative skill - Anxiety keeps artists busy but stops them finishing. In the last episode, Ceri talked about the fact that you can't make work from a dysregulated life, that no amount of studio time will compensate for exhaustion, financial stress, unresolved anxiety, or a nervous system that never properly settles. Today, she goes a level deeper explaining why even when life is relatively stable, dysregulation still shows up inside the work itself, which is where a lot of artists get stuck.  Ceri demonstrates why artists need to stop waiting to relax after the work is done and instead regulate their emotional state before they step into the studio and shares how to do that. KEY TAKEAWAYS When your nervous system is dysregulated, your brain becomes conservative. It narrows options, avoids risk, and favours movement over resolution. So, starting something new feels safer than staying with something unfinished. Finishing means deciding, committing, being seen - For an anxious nervous system, which feels like danger. Your job as an artist is to walk into uncertainty on purpose and stay there long enough for something real to emerge. That's emotional agility: the capacity to feel threat, doubt, visibility, and not bolt. BEST MOMENTS “Anxiety doesn't always stop you working. Sometimes it keeps you working endlessly so you never have to finish.” “Regulation is not the reward for creative work. It's the capacity that determines what kind of work you're able to make in the first place.” HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She has sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

Today I'm joined by the brilliant Beth Greenacre, a curator, advisor, and art consultant whose career has unfolded quietly but powerfully at the centre of the art world. Beth began working with David Bowie in her twenties and went on to oversee the care, exhibition, and eventual sale of his collection, revealing a deeply personal way of looking, collecting and living with art. Since then, she's built a long-term, trust-led portfolio career advising private collectors, working with artists and estates, and curating exhibitions. In this conversation, we talk about how collectors really make decisions, how intuition is really deeply embodied knowledge and why holding work back can be an act of integrity. This is a rare, generous look inside how the art world actually works, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! KEY TAKEAWAYS Be present. Build relationships patiently. Share your work carefully. Trust that confidence is learned, not bestowed. Quality reveals itself over time, through deep looking, honest editing, and the courage to hold work back until it is ready to speak. Artists are not failing when recognition comes slowly. They're building something with roots. Working with David Bowie taught Beth that confidence isn't about hierarchy or bravado. It's about shared commitment, deep listening, and respect for the work. BEST MOMENTS “My purpose is to acknowledge, celebrate and give space to the power of art to change people's perspectives.” “Nothing meaningful in the art world is built quickly. Not confidence. Not collections. Not trust.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.bethgreenacre.com https://www.instagram.com/bethgreenacre_london PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

There's a romantic idea that if you just shut the door, block the world out, and push through, the work will save you. That you can white-knuckle your way through exhaustion, anxiety, financial stress, hangovers, through everything else falling apart. For a while, maybe you can - willpower is powerful, but it is not infinite. Ceri regularly see artists trying to dominate their minds instead of supporting their nervous systems. Trying to overpower negative thoughts instead of changing the conditions that generate them. Eventually, something gives, leading to work that feels thinner than it used to and burnout. The studio doesn't magically neutralise what you haven't dealt with outside it. Your body, your mind, your fears come with you. In this episode, Ceri unpacks why being in the studio only works when the rest of your life is set up to support the quality of thinking your work actually needs. KEY TAKEAWAYS The studio won't save you if your life is dysregulated, but when your life supports your nervous system, your thinking deepens, your work sharpens, and finishing becomes possible. Work of depth, originality, risk and resonance doesn't come from distraction, so you do need long stretches alone. But every artist who has the capacity to go deep has support from others in their lives. BEST MOMENTS “Capacity doesn´t come from chaos.” “Making your best work is not about heroic effort. It's about building conditions that allow you to finish.” “Finishing our work is a good habit to develop. It boosts confidence.” HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She has sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

Sophie Coryndon learned early that craft is not decoration, but devotion, time, patience, skill, and care. Her work sits confidently outside conventional categories, moving between art and craft, history, and contemporary imagination.  This conversation is about enchantment in a disenchanted world, about beauty as a serious subject, about what it means to make work slowly with your hands, at a time when speed and visibility are rewarded above all else. We also talk openly about Sophie's experience of being part of the artist's mastermind circle, where she felt stuck before joining, and how having a space to think more expansively has shaped her work and decisions. KEY TAKEAWAYS ·      We're not separate from the natural world. We are of it. When we remember that, we start to see the magic in everything and capture it. ·      The art world is far more varied than it first appears. You don't have to conquer it all  ·      Don´t be afraid to make slowly, to create work that needs privacy, darkness, and time before it is ready to be seen. BEST MOMENTS “What's in the way, is you - always. We are all holding ourselves back.” “Craft is a form of language. When someone takes the time to make something carefully that care travels - even across centuries.” RESOURCES https://www.sophiecoryndon.co.uk/contact https://www.instagram.com/sophiecoryndon HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

In this episode, Ceri explores the uncomfortable truth at the heart of a sustainable creative life - good mental health doesn't come from avoiding hard things, but from learning how to move through them. It comes from learning how to deal with them, from building confidence, so that when life feels awkward, lonely, stressful, or uncertain, you won't fall apart or abandon yourself. Yet so many artists quietly organise their entire creative lives around avoiding discomfort. They avoid awkward conversations; they avoid going to private viewings alone. They avoid putting editing dates in the diary. They avoid following up. They avoid staying with work when it feels unresolved. Telling themselves that they're protecting their wellbeing, but often they're doing the opposite – shrinking their capacity. Ceri demonstrates why discomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful life, especially for artists and shares how to accept and embrace this fact and use it to build the career you really want. KEY TAKEAWAYS Avoidance of stressful situations feels like self-care. But over time, it shrinks your capacity - You can´t build a creative life on evasion. If you avoid the stress of editing, the stress grows. If you avoid the stress of being seen, it compounds. If you avoid the stress of committing to a direction, everything stays harder for longer. Most artists think confidence comes first -Then they'll go to the show. Then they'll talk to new people. It doesn't. Confidence is built after you stay with the discomfort. After you walk into the room anyway. After you sit with unfinished work. BEST MOMENTS “Discomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful life - not a side effect, not a failure, the price. And if you're an artist, that price shows up everywhere.” “Here's the problem, the things she's avoiding are the very things that will build her confidence.” “Avoiding stress increases stress. Learning how to cope with stress makes us more resilient, and that applies directly to creative lives.” ** If you're muddling through the art world on your own, you already know the cost. Lost time. Avoidable mistakes. Weeks stuck on something that could have been solved in minutes with the right support. Inside the Ceri Hand Coaching Membership, you don't have to do it alone.

I don't know about you but for me, a new year holds up a mirror. Not the soft one that flatters, but the honest one. The one that shows you the thing you want most and the exact shape of the fear wrapped around it. Today is for artists who are done pretending they don't know what they want. This is the year you stop hiding from the thing you want most. Let's make this practical, emotional, and real. Not a manifesto. Not a vision board. A lived year. A designed year. A year where confidence becomes something you build on purpose, not something you hope to stumble into. And since artists always want to know where to begin, I'll tell you. You start with one question. What is the thing you want most but have been quietly avoiding? If you can answer that honestly, the year will write itself. -- Most artists are guessing their way through and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside Ceri Hand´s Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support through live sessions, portfolio reviews, virtual studio visits, monthly art world experts and community to help you cut through fast. Ceri covers everything. Right now, you can join or gift a full year for £99 - our only discount of the year, available until the first of January. Please join here - http://cerihand.com/membership/ KEY TAKEAWAYS Start with one question, what's the thing you want most, but have been quietly avoiding – If you can answer that honestly, the year will write itself. You know what the one important thing you have been avoiding is because you feel it in your stomach. A flicker of longing and a flicker of dread at the same time. Follow that. It never lies. Your Year begins with one honest decision, one place where your confidence is thin, one skill you avoid, one action you know would change everything, but you never quite take that's your focus for the year. BEST MOMENTS "Readiness is a myth artists use to avoid taking themselves seriously. Start before you're ready. That's what readiness actually looks like." "Confidence is not a feeling. Confidence is a practice. It grows exactly where you feel resistance. It grows in the doorway You've been avoiding. It grows when you stop circling the perimeter of your life, and step directly into the centre." "Identify the thing you want most. Name the fear that sits beside it. Make it the focus of the year. Choose one tiny weekly action that touches it. Repeat until you no longer flinch. Let that momentum bleed into the rest of your life."

I wanted to end this year with a simple thing. A thank you. A real one. The kind that comes from the ribs. Because you might not realise how often I think about you when I sit down to plan these episodes. I think about what you're navigating, what might help, what could spark a shift, or soften a blow, or give you a way through a knotty day. And I'm grateful that you're here, listening, building a creative life alongside me. It's been a challenging year for so many of us. We've ridden wave after wave in the social, political, economic, and arts climates. It's been loud out there. Overwhelming at times. And artists, more than most, have a knack for turning all of that noise into blame. Blame for what we didn't finish. For what we haven't achieved yet. Blame for the mythical future selves we think we should already be. My brain does that too. Ambition is a beautiful engine, but it forgets to look back at the road travelled. It forgets the courage it's taken to get here. It forgets what we've survived, created, learned, and quietly carried. So instead of listing everything I've done this year, I wanted to talk about something I rely on every single day. Gratitude. Not the glossy version. The real, grounded, neuroscience-backed kind. The kind that keeps you upright when the world tilts. -- Most artists are guessing their way through and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside Ceri Hand´s Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support through live sessions, portfolio reviews, virtual studio visits, monthly art world experts, and community to help you cut through fast. Ceri covers everything. Right now, you can join or gift a full year for £99 - our only discount of the year, available until the first of January. Please join here - http://cerihand.com/membership/ KEY TAKEAWAYS We're so quick to measure ourselves against the version of us we think we should already be. The one who's achieved more, finished more, ticked more boxes. But we forget the person who got us through this year. The one who kept showing up when life was heavy or heartbreaking or just plain hard. A new year won't transform your life if you carry last year's avoidance into it. If you're an artist standing at the edge of something important, let this be the year you stop walking around the perimeter of your life and finally step in. BEST MOMENTS “I want to invite you to pause and notice what you're grateful for, not the obvious wins - the quieter things, the things you did for yourself, the things you did for others, the things you survived, the moments of courage no one else saw.” “Confidence doesn't arrive first. Courage does - And courage usually shows up exactly where you feel the wobble.” HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

If you've been listening to this festive-season mini-series, you'll know that in Episode 1 Ceri laid the foundations. The why. The what. The who. The purpose of staging your own event. And in Episode 2 we stepped into the how. The planning. The invitations. The rehearsal. The feedback. The choreography of the night itself. Today, we're entering the part artists often ignore. The after. Because what happens after your event is often far more important than the event itself. The room empties. The fairy lights cool. The paint smell settles. The cushions slump. The adrenaline fades. And there you are, standing in your studio, wondering what it all meant. Did it work? Did it matter? Was it worth it? What comes next? This is the moment artists often mis-handle. They either spring into frantic action or retreat into silence. But the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Slow, steady, intentional follow up. Gentle momentum. Small moves done consistently. -- Most artists are guessing their way through and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside Ceri Hand´s Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support through live sessions, portfolio reviews, virtual studio visits, monthly art world experts, and community to help you cut through fast. Ceri covers everything. Right now, you can join or gift a full year for £99 - our only discount of the year, available until the first of January. Please join here - http://cerihand.com/membership/ KEY TAKEAWAYS The after is where 90% of the opportunity sits. The event is only the beginning. The reflection and follow up is the bridge to your future. Hosting your own event is not about grandeur, it's not about numbers. Is not about applause. It's about agency, clarity, community, practice, becoming the artist who leads rather than waits. Plan with intention. Invite with care, host with presence. Follow up with warmth, reflect with honesty, and build with steadiness, and in time, your work will move outward into the world with a stronger pulse. Use your event as a catalyst not a climax. BEST MOMENTS “The first hour after everyone leaves is emotional. Everything feels tender. Your self-worth is loud, your exhaustion is louder.” “She tracks which price points people reached for, she jots down which pieces felt alive in the space and which pieces she'd not show next time.” “This is the moment that artists begin to think like both makers and professionals, where they have agency, where they take control of their own creative careers.” HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Lisa reitet ungarische Post und zwar schon bald. Das manifestieren wir zumindest. Semiprofessionell. Während Ceri mit ihrer neuen besten Freundin Twinkle über die Wiesen Virginias flitzt.

Welcome to the second part in Ceri¨s three part miniseries on planning an artist led event. This one's called planning the how turning intention into a structured, soulful artist led event. If you listened to Episode 1, you will remember that everything begins with clarity. The why. The what. Who it is for. What you want to learn. What you want to feel. That foundation changes everything. Without it, an artist-led event becomes a swirl of worry and last-minute decisions. With it, the whole thing becomes a living part of your practice. Today, we are stepping into the how. How to plan. How to prepare. How to build momentum. How to invite people. How to rehearse the event. How to gather feedback. How to set yourself up for sales if that is part of your goal. How to hold the energy of the night. We will continue following our two artists, Maya and Eli, because between them they cover so many of the scenarios that artists face. Performance plus sculpture. Painting plus small works on paper. Feedback plus sales. Ambition plus nerves. Limited budgets. Shared studios. Bigger dreams. -- Most artists are guessing their way through and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside Ceri Hand´s Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support through live sessions, portfolio reviews, virtual studio visits, monthly art world experts, and community to help you cut through fast. Ceri covers everything. Right now, you can join or gift a full year for £99 - our only discount of the year, available until the first of January. Please join here - http://cerihand.com/membership/ KEY TAKEAWAYS You can´t roll straight from the studio into the event. Your work needs a staging environment, a context, a point of view. When planning and preparing an event you need to protect your energy. Block out time to relax as well as time for the event. These blocks create momentum. Holding a room is not about performance. It's about hospitality, and hospitality is an art in itself. BEST MOMENTS “Artists underestimate the mental load of planning. Something I teach all of my artist clients, to create a planning container.” “The order in which you invite people matters. So, step one, warm your warmest people. These are the people who are most likely to say yes.” “For Ellie, her feedback comes in the form of behaviour, which paintings people stand longest in front of which works on paper people touch which price points get interest.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

For those of you who are new to the podcast, and for those of you who've been listening for a while, thank you for being here. As we reach the edge of the festive season, I wanted to offer you something special. A small gift to carry into the new year. A mini-series on hosting your own events as an artist. Not because the world is begging you to. Not because someone has given you the green light. But because your practice deserves oxygen. Visibility. Conversation. Agency. And because too many artists are waiting for someone else to make the first move. If you've worked with me, you'll know I'm a firm believer in not waiting for permission. And I've seen too many artists twist themselves into knots wondering whether it's worth doing something self-initiated. Whether it looks desperate. Whether it's allowed. Whether someone else might quietly judge them. Whether it's pointless unless it's blessed by an institution. But in reality, artists at every stage host their own events. The big names do it with teams and budgets. The early career artists do it with hustle, charm and borrowed gear. Everyone else sits somewhere in the middle. Today's episode is all about the foundation. The why and the what. Why host your own event. What to show. What you're trying to learn. What you're trying to provoke. What you're building toward. -- Most artists are guessing their way through and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside Ceri Hand´s Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support through live sessions, portfolio reviews, virtual studio visits, monthly art world experts and community to help you cut through fast. Ceri covers everything. Right now, you can join or gift a full year for £99 - our only discount of the year, available until the first of January. Please join here - http://cerihand.com/membership/ KEY TAKEAWAYS Start planning ideally, six months out, at minimum. Why six months? - because momentum in the art world drips rather than gushes. Every decision you make when building your event must flow from a high level of clarity. Otherwise, the event becomes a blur. Too much labour, not enough purpose. Too many hopes, not enough design. When you're clear on why you're holding your event, you're not just “putting on something,” you're designing an experience that has a job to do. BEST MOMENTS “I've seen too many artists twist themselves into knots, wondering whether it's worth doing something self-initiated.” “The three-month window is your sweet spot. Enough time for people to make space in their diaries, but not so far in advance that they forget.” “Both events are small, both events are intentional, and both events are entirely designed around their aims.” HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

durée : 00:11:23 - Les Enjeux internationaux - par : Guillaume Erner - C'est un conflit frontalier ancien, enraciné dans l'histoire coloniale de l'Asie du Sud-Est, qui a de nouveau explosé la semaine dernière. En dix jours, les affrontements entre la Thaïlande et le Cambodge ont fait au moins 32 morts et poussé environ 800 000 personnes à évacuer la frontière. - réalisation : Félicie Faugère - invités : David Camroux chercheur franco-australien, membre du CERI et enseignant à Sciences Po, il est spécialiste de l'Asie du Sud-Est

This is the time of year when the studio hopefully gets a little quieter, inboxes slow down, and we start to take stock. For many artists, that pause comes with a mix of reflection and panic. The question that hangs in the air is: what will next year look like? How will I make it work — not just creatively, but financially? If that thought makes your stomach tighten, you're not alone. Most artists were never taught how to plan income. We were taught to plan projects. But the truth is, when you take charge of your numbers, you take charge of your freedom. So, today I want to walk you through a simple way to design your own £40K year — not as a fantasy figure, but as a structure you can actually build towards. It's not about making 40K exactly, if you need to earn more or less; it's about giving yourself a clear base to make informed choices and stop relying on luck or last-minute opportunities. KEY TAKEAWAYS You can design your own £40K year by mapping your current income streams, sketching your "ideal" income wheel, and using the gap between them as your roadmap for the year ahead. Ceri shares exactly how to do this. Clarity beats hustle. When you identify and break your goals into quarterly, monthly, and even daily targets, and choose one 90-day focus with specific actions, you create momentum without burning out. When Ceri's student Jenny stopped trying to do everything and instead doubled down on two key levers—direct collector sales and small group workshops—she didn't double her workload, she doubled her clarity, and that's what took her from £22K to £40K in a year. BEST MOMENTS “We're working on compounding your actions over time, not going all in, then having to lie down for a month because you've exhausted yourself.” “This isn't just an exercise. It's an act of self-leadership, because the truth is, no one is coming to plan your career for you.” “£40k might sound big, but when you break it into four quarters or 10 collectors or 15 commissions, it's suddenly human sized.” For support with creating and delivering your own £40k+ year, get on the waitlist for Ceri Hand´s Artist Mastermind Circle.

durée : 00:38:07 - L'Invité(e) des Matins - par : Guillaume Erner, Yoann Duval - Les chiffres de la puissance chinoise donnent le vertige : pour la première fois, Pékin affiche un excédent commercial record de plus de 1 000 milliards de dollars. Face à cette accélération sans précédent, l'Europe est-elle condamnée à rester sur le carreau ? La Chine a-t-elle déjà gagné ? - réalisation : Félicie Faugère - invités : Stéphanie Balme Chercheuse et professeure, directrice du Centre de recherches internationales (CERI) de Sciences Po, spécialiste de la diplomatie scientifique, de la Chine globale et des relations Chine-US-UE.; Romain Graziani Professeur en études chinoises à l'école normale supérieure de Lyon; Jean-François Huchet Economiste, spécialiste de la Chine, et président de l'Institut national des langues et civilisations orientales

It's that time of year again when we start reflecting on what we've achieved in the year and start thinking and planning for the year ahead. So, I wanted to record something for you on how to set goals that actually work for you. Most artists I know aren't short on ideas — they're short on direction. It's not about working harder; it's about knowing where your effort will actually count. Every January, or halfway through the year when things start to slide, I hear the same refrain: “I just need to be more disciplined.” But discipline isn't the issue. The problem is that most of us set goals that belong to someone else's version of success. We look at what others are achieving — the residencies, the launches, the awards — and think, I should be doing that too. But if your goals don't match your values, energy, and current reality, they'll drain you before they ever develop you. Today, I want to help you create goals that work for you — goals that are practical, measurable, and motivating, not punishing, that won´t slip away. KEY TAKEAWAYS Make your goals specific, time-bound and identify the benefits of achieving those goals. Establish where you are now, work out what could derail you and how you will handle that. Visualise success - Picture the outcome. What does the room look like when those works hang together? The overview of the Seven Essential Steps to Achieving Your Goals framework shared here is the same one Ceri teaches in her Artist Mastermind Circle - a tried, tested and highly effective way to turn vague hopes into a clear creative plan. BEST MOMENTS “Goal setting isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters most.” “Chaos says, “I must do everything.,” Momentum says, “I'll focus on what creates real movement.” “Commit to the process. Not perfection — persistence. Progress happens through consistent, imperfect action.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci. Now, she wants to share her extensive knowledge with you, so you can excel and achieve your goals. **** Ceri Hand Coaching Membership: Group coaching, live art surgeries, exclusive masterclasses, portfolio reviews, weekly challenges.

Today, Ceri speaks the extraordinary Memo Akten — artist, researcher, computer scientist. For more than a decade, he has worked with emerging technologies, AI, Big Data, and our Collective Consciousness as scraped and shaped by the internet, to explore consciousness, perception, ecology and the politics of our techno-lifestyles. He won the Golden Nica at Prix Ars Electronica, became Google's first artist-in-residence in their Artists & Machine Intelligence programme, and has exhibited at the Venice Biennale, Tribeca, the Barbican, ACMI, Mori Art Museum, and the Academy Museum in LA. His collaborations span U2, Lenny Kravitz, Depeche Mode, Max Cooper, Richard Dawkins, Google, Apple and McLaren. KEY TAKEAWAYS Technology is never neutral. It shapes us as much as we shape it. Memo reminds us that behind every dataset is a culture, behind every model is a worldview, and behind every technological leap is a chain of ecological, political and emotional consequences. The world can only meet your ideas if you let them out of hiding. Memo's story is a masterclass in releasing the work before you feel ready. If you are wrestling your way through a project remember - the destination is just the documentary still. Gathering the threads that eventually become something whole is where the real art is. BEST MOMENTS “We can use technology to understand ourselves more deeply, to pay attention to the world more carefully, and to ask bigger, braver questions.” “I very rarely begin a project with an end goal of this is what it should look like, in mind. I usually begin with this is how I want it to behave.” AN UNMISSABLE OFFER If the art world feels confusing, you're not imagining it. Most artists are guessing their way through it and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside the Ceri Hand Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support.

Some artists wait for the perfect show to appear, as if the universe will tap them on the shoulder and whisper that it is finally time to finish the work. But the longer you wait, the further away it drifts. Because unfinished work is safe. It stays in potential, where nothing is at risk and everything is still possible. And waiting feels easier than deciding. But waiting is not how shows happen. Finishing is. Ceri explains how to get unstuck, finish your work and finally show it. -- Most artists are guessing their way through and staying stuck far longer than they need to. Inside Ceri Hand´s Coaching Membership, you get straight answers and real support through live sessions, portfolio reviews, virtual studio visits, monthly art world experts and community to help you cut through fast. Ceri covers everything. Right now, you can join or gift a full year for £99 - our only discount of the year, available until the first of January. Please join here - http://cerihand.com/membership/ KEY TAKEAWAYS There is the quiet belief that if you never finish, you never fail, but you also never get seen. You can't wait for a show to begin. You have to build the show from where you are. Finish the work. Completion builds confidence. Confidence builds momentum. Momentum builds opportunity. If you want to show, you have to practice building one in your studio. Now, regularly. BEST MOMENTS “The shift comes when you decide that a work is the best you can make for this particular moment in your life, that this alone is enough reason to finish it.” “When you don't trust your authority, you fill the space with quantity. You make more instead of choosing better. You wait for a show instead of becoming the person a show makes sense for - opportunities come when you behave as if they already exist.” “Photograph it, sit with it, invite someone you trust to see it, but only after you've formed your own view. If you ask too early, you lose the chance to hear your own voice.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

Today I'm speaking with artist Lakwena Maciver, whose glorious work has wrapped electrical substations, transformed the Bowery Wall, brought hope into a juvenile detention centre in Arkansas, transformed Tate Modern and handbags for Dior, all carrying poignant messages of care. All of this stemmed from a child drawing her own name to anchor a shifting sense of identity. Those early gestures became a life's work centred on hope, connection and the courage to speak into public space without dilution.  We talk about the culture shock that shaped her, the spiritual turning point that unlocked her practice, and the Miami wall that changed her trajectory. We also explore how she navigates large-scale public commissions, studio freedom, working with commercial galleries, licensing and her thinking behind her own online shop and merch. If you've ever felt torn between ambition and intuition, visibility and vulnerability, or the expectation to deliver versus the instinct to stay true to your vision, this one's for you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Embrace your unique journey. Use what you have, stay true to your path and don´t worry about what others are doing or have. Art in public spaces can have a transformative impact - fostering hope, connection, and a sense of belonging, often deeply impacting unseen or marginalized communities. Balancing ambition versus intuition, visibility versus vulnerability, and expectation versus authenticity is ongoing for any creative person. Moving beyond “solo” creation into collaborative and community-focused work renews your creative energy and deepens your impact. BEST MOMENTS “I think I started making work from a place of displacement. So, I started drawing and making artwork as a way of trying to empower myself and speak hope to myself.” “What we protect ourselves from is often exactly where the breakthrough waits - letting something in is sometimes the bravest part of creative life.” “Try and stay in your lane. Use what you have in your hand. Don't worry about what you haven't got and what other people have.” EPISODE RESOURCES https://www.lakwena.com https://www.instagram.com/lakwena You can sign up for Lakwena´s newsletter at the bottom of this page - https://shop.lakwena.com PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.
