Marcus Bleasdale has spent his life in places most of us would struggle to imagine, photographically documenting conflict zones and communities caught in the crossfire of politics and profit. In this conversation within The Photowalk show, Marcus talks about the responsibility of witnessing brutal truths, from child labour in the Democratic Republic of Congo to the mining of conflict minerals used in our phones and tech, and how his book The Unravelling, forces us to reckon with the uncomfortable fact that everyday convenience often comes at someone else's expense. The mailbag is back and in today's: Spike Boydell sends in a film link that had me properly thinking about connection. Jerilyn Owen shares how making a self-portrait is helping her learn acceptance. Samantha Ramsay finds something spiritual in photographing hands, while Greg Picone stumbles across a spooky landscape right behind his own backyard. Randy Bullerwell's been capturing carnival season in Aruba in a way that's anything but ordinary and Complaints Corner is open again… this time, it's a case of the wrong pants.

In this episode, I'm joined by Ian Beesley, the acclaimed social documentary photographer whose work has captured the changing face of the North of England for over four decades. From documenting the decline of heavy industry to the resilience of working-class communities, Ian's photographs are raw, honest, and deeply human. We talk about memory, place, humour, and the role of photography in giving voice to people and stories often overlooked. It's a conversation about seeing, really seeing, the world around us and using a camera not just to document but to care. Also on the show, Valérie Jardin returns for the monthly Teach Me Street feature, and there's a reminder of the latest one-word assignment set by the photojournalist Claire Thomas.

Today's conversation with photojournalist Claire Thomas takes a remarkable turn within just 20 minutes, shifting from casual beginnings to the profound realities of her work now. From those early travel ‘snaps' to capturing global crises, Claire's photography isn't just about documenting what she witnesses; it's about her genuine desire to share stories of resilience and hope. Working with clients like The New York Times, National Geographic, Amnesty International and UN agencies, her work is respected worldwide. Claire shows real humanity behind the lens and a commitment to her subjects that surpasses the act of photography alone. Also, on the show from the mailbag, Tim Bindner believes he's discovered his true creative WHY, Bob Shonkoff has insomnia but has turned it into a photographic opportunity, Lynn Fraser and David Higton are making proper pictures of proper snow, and Mark Krajnak is celebrating Hogmanay in a place far from Scottish shores. We'll also remind you of January's assignment set by the Art of Photography's Ted Forbes, plus there's some more information about April's ENCOUNTERS workshop and experience.

In this episode of the Mindful Builder podcast, we sit down with Claire Thomas from Altereco for an engaging conversation that spans career transitions, personal challenges, and the intricacies of running a sustainable building design company.Bringing Unique Skills to the IndustryClaire's journey began in the UK, studying sports science, before relocating to Australia to live with her husband James. She worked as a technical rep in the footwear industry for many years before realising she wanted to try something new and joining her husband at Altereco.Transitioning from the footwear industry to an architectural design company was difficult. Claire admitted she didn't know the difference between a planning permit and a building permit at first. However, Claire's background in a completely different industry has provided her with unique skills that have greatly benefited Altereco. Her ability to communicate effectively and build relationships proved invaluable. Claire highlighted how these skills are sometimes overlooked but are essential in creating a positive work environment and nurturing client relationships. The Challenges of Working with a PartnerA lot of people think that working closely with your partner is a recipe for tension but Claire promises it's not that hard to manage! She shares how she and James can maintain a balance between their personal and professional lives. She mentioned the importance of setting boundaries and having open, honest conversations. They even sought professional guidance to better understand each other's working styles! The Emotional Side of BuildingClaire talks candidly about the emotional investment that comes with her job. She feels a massive responsibility when dealing with clients' biggest assets—their homes and life savings. This sense of responsibility sometimes manifests physically, showing just how deeply she cares about her clients' experiences. Balancing Stress and Self-CareTo manage the inevitable stress that comes with her role, Claire leans on regular exercise, specifically mountain biking, as a key coping mechanism. She highlights the importance of having activities that allow one to switch off mentally and physically. Additionally, Claire stresses the value of being open about one's struggles to maintain mental well-being, a practice she incorporates into her regular routines and interactions with her team and James.Budget vs. Brief: The Eternal StruggleOne of the more challenging aspects of Claire's job is discussing budget realities with clients. She is direct and honest from the get-go, making sure clients understand the financial scope of their projects early in the process. This level of honesty, though sometimes difficult, builds trust and sets realistic expectations.We hope this episode inspires you as much as it inspired us.

This is obviously not the full transcript. You have to listen to hear the full weirdness, but . . . here's the core. How Do You Sustain a Career as an Author? It's a really good question, right? One, all of us authors are trying to figure out. Rise With Drew writes, "Creative careers are slippery. One-hit wonders abound, but fewer are enduring superstars,” Steven writes. “And this level of commitment requires not just originality but rather that ultimate expression of originality: the consistent reinvention of self. Again and again. “Long-haul creativity isn't about a first act or a second act. It's a third and fourth and fifth act. It's that ultimate impossible, the infinite game, where the goal is simply to keep on playing.” There's a woman over on the Creative Penn who gives a pretty long interview about author sustainability, pimping out her book--which may be one of the keys of of sustainability--who has been writing since 2014. Claire Thomas is her name. She's written books about this and uses a personality test (enneagram) to explain to writers their blocks. In the podcast she says, "In our industry, we have a crisis of people being stuck and trapped because they've limited their options. Their subconscious mind has limited their options because of the patterns that it's functioning in as a default. "So they can't always see an aligned path forward when the industry undergoes swift changes, which it does very frequently. So I can give you an example. "If you're an author who's what we call a type three, this is the achiever, then your core fear is lacking value or being worthless, and pretty much everything you do is to avoid confronting this fear or feeling like you lack value or are worthless, if you're three. "A pattern that almost always arises from this is the belief that they earn value through accomplishments and achievements. This can look like how many books they have in their catalog, how high their books rank after launch, and how many subscribers they have on their email list." So, when you look at your personality type, you can see what might be holding you back. What the old scripts are running through your head, how your complacency or peacekeeping tendencies might keep you from talking about your triumphs for marketing, or how your love for isolating research might keep you from actually putting words down. More on that in the audio. DOG TIP FOR LIFE Work through your blocks to advance and evolve. Channel your inner cat. Or inner duck. COOL EXERCISE Go figure out your Enneagram. See if it's blocking you. Do it for one of your characters that you're struggling with.

On parle beaucoup de Karma, mais savons-nous ce que c'est véritablement ? Si le Karma vient du bouddhisme ou de l'Indouisme, c'est un véritable travail de vie dont la signification signifie « Action ». Le Karma serait-il alors l'ensemble des actions de notre vie ? Le Karma nous juge-t-il dans le choix de ces actions ? Sommes-nous soumis à notre Karma ou pouvons-nous le diriger ou le faire évoluer ? Entre l'ombre et la lumière, entre causes et conséquences que faire de ce Karma ? De cet ensemble d'informations qui nous parle de notre vie et peut-être même de nos vies, faut-il se libérer du système Karmique ? Pour aborder ce vaste sujet et en débattre ensemble nous invitons la médium Claire Thomas qui enseigne entre autre dans le domaine de la Karmathérapie. Elle nous donnera les clés de ce Karma dont on entend beaucoup parler sans peut-être le connaître vraiment.

Thomas-Morgan has worked as a women's wear designer and buyer, visual merchandiser for J.Crew, and currently has her own children's wear line, Vivi Design Studio.

Thomas-Morgan aims to elevate children's wear to a realm of thought-provoking, creatively classic, and everlasting design, while fostering discovery, acceptance, and expression of self. Her goals are to open children's fashion to a more emotionally connected, intelligent, and artistic environment that allows healthy self exploration and expression.

At this week's Round Table, Kris, Collin, Kenisha, and Skyla spoke with Claire Thomas, attorney, consultant, professor and clinical director practicing immigration law and researching global migration, statelessness, human rights, and empowerment for women and girls facing poverty and gender-based violence. Claire recently returned from a Fulbright in Mexico, during which she interviewed asylum-seekers, government officials, and immigration experts to learn about and share cross-cultural best practices in asylum and refugee law. We talked about the challenges of immigration policy which, in Claire's words, is “a big jumbled mess” and which Claire's work focuses on the humanitarian side of. Much of today's immigration policy stems from treaties signed after the horrors of WWII and is predicated in very outdated language and concepts—many other countries are more modern and inclusive. A toxic blend of Misinformation, racism, and outdated laws interferes with progress. We have a true humanitarian crisis because the Mexican border has been closed to asylum seekers since March 2020, making it impossible for anyone to come through and forced those in peril to wait in dangerous Mexican border cities for years. We talked about the dangers of the “close the door behind you” mentality, gender based violence and the deadly absence of gender-based grounds for asylum in the US, what to do about ICE, the hugely disparate treatment of black and brown refugees, what and how the Biden administration is doing on immigration, and what can teens our age do to actually facilitate change in the short and long term. Most importantly, we spoke about how we can open the eyes of those l who have a misconstrued view of what the immigration process is and who immigrants are. We hope this podcast can be part of that process. Thank you for listening! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nextgenpolitics/message

"I think it's valuable to dwell on the difficult stuff sometimes, and that this can actually be very productive and germinating in terms of writing." – Claire Thomas Rebecca Starford and Claire Thomas discuss their acclaimed 2021 novels with Declan Fry. Hailed as a gripping thriller and deft character study, Rebecca's The Imitator is the story of a female spy recruited into an elite MI5 counterintelligence unit during World War II. Named one of The Sydney Morning Herald's most anticipated books of the year, Claire's The Performance is a tightly woven portrayal of three women forever changed during a night at the theatre as bushfires burned nearby. Listen as these two talented authors touch on the joys of inhabiting their characters' heads, their shared need to make sense of the world through art and the growing societal pressure to adopt a false sense of positivity. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Chaired by Kate Mildenhall. Two of 2021's most innovative and engrossing books have works of art at their heart. Claire Thomas's The Performance is set over a single theatrical performance, and uses the potent image of the trapped Winnie in Beckett's masterpiece Happy Days to explore the colliding but disparate lives of three women. Angela O'Keeffe's Night Blue is audaciously told from the perspective of our National Gallery's most famous acquisition, Jackson Pollock's Blue Poles, as it examines an artist's life and the eternal conundrum of great art that springs from monstrous creators.

Hear from two of the country’s most refreshingly distinct literary voices as they discuss their breakthrough novels which both conjure nuanced depictions of women’s interior lives. Meg Mason‘s Sorrow and Bliss is a bleakly funny coming-of-age confessional that has drawn comparisons to Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Fleabag and has been called ‘fresh and revelatory … sharp, racy and entertaining’ (The Saturday Paper). Claire Thomas‘ The Performance explores the fears and desires of three women attending a play in Melbourne as a bushfire encroaches, earning praise as ‘a project of living [that] is rendered with compassionate clarity’ (New York Times).

From today, people will be able to move across the Auckland boundary if they are relocating permanently.  That includes people who need to get to a hall of residence for tertiary study. Victoria University of Wellington students Claire Thomas and Pauline Abeleda have been stuck in Auckland since mid-August, having gone to visit family in what they expected would be just a two week long visit.  Abeleda hasn't been able to work shifts at her retail job in Wellington, but stopped receiving the wage subsidy when Wellington moved down to the level 2 alert level.  As soon as the government announced it would loosen its boundary rules for Auckland yesterday, they both jumped at the chance to buy tickets back to the capital.  Thomas and Abeleda spoke to Corin Dann.

Laurel Gallucci's (IG: @laurelgallucci) world was rocked when she was diagnosed with an aggressive autoimmune disease and told she would never eat cake again. The lifelong baker and dessert lover refused to accept that, which led her to discover the beauty of baking with whole-food ingredients. When Laurel shared a slice of grain-free, refined sugar–free, dairy-free, soy-free, gum-free, filler-free, fudge-frosted chocolate caramel cake with her friend Claire Thomas, Sweet Laurel bakery was born. In this episode, we discuss: Laurel's lifelong passion for baking Dealing with digestive issues & fatigue in college Laurel's father, a cardiologist, instilled in her the link between health & diet At age 26, Laurel's OB noticed she had a goiter and was later diagnosed with Hashimoto's Laurel left her teaching job to take a year off to heal The biggest challenge transitioning to the paleo diet Experimenting with paleo baking Launching Sweet Laurel in 2014 with Claire Thomas You learn by doing Healing began by rebuilding the gut wall Dealing with secondary amenorrhea Breathwork helps calm the body and manage stress The mental aspect of Laurel's healing journey Fostering a sense of community at Sweet Laurel It is possible to reverse Hashimoto's disease Synthroid vs. Armour thyroid Working with a functional medicine practitioner to address deficiencies Laurel's experience with the AIP diet The support of Laurel's husband and his involvement in the business The naming of Sweet Laurel How the pandemic has impacted the direction of her business Sweet Laurel is more than just a bakery Balancing motherhood & friendship Gardening is fun for the whole family Educating & inspiring people is the foundation of Sweet Laurel Kids helping in the kitchen is a great way for them to build motor skills Show sponsors: Four Sigmatic

Imagine being told you’ll never be able to eat cake again! Maybe that doesn’t sound like the biggest deal, unless you’re me, but hearing something like this was also devastating to Laurel Gallucci when she was diagnosed with an aggressive autoimmune disease less than 10 years ago. However, the lifelong baker and dessert lover refused to accept that fate and set out on a mission to create desserts free of the ingredients that were destroying her body. For months, Laurel spent day after day in her kitchen creating delicious treats made from whole ingredients. The day she shared her grain-free, refined-sugar-free, dairy-free, soy-free, gum-free, filler-free, fudge frosted chocolate caramel cake with her friend Claire Thomas, Sweet Laurel Bakery was born. Years of fighting this aggressive autoimmune disorder with whole foods and Laurel is now in remission. She’s been doing it all while educating others about the impact foods have on our bodies. In today’s episode of Courtney, Beyond the Cake, Laurel shares her journey with us, as well as her mission to live and promote a whole life, as well as the importance of loving ourselves enough to take care of ourselves.Sponsor:Save $15 off your first visit with a board-certified dermatologist at Apostrophe.com/beyondcake when you use the code BEYONDCAKEGet 10% off your fist month by visiting BetterHelp.com/beyondcake

The baking sheet will get very hot and provide a crispy bottom crust.On a counter, place the dough on a sheet of parchment, cover with another piece of parchment paper, and gently roll out into a large circle, about 10 inches in diameter and 1/8-inch thick. Using your fingers, pinch the edge of the pizza dough into a small lip. Spread the sauce over the pizza dough, but not the lip, and sprinkle with the mozzarella and fresh basil. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the dough is deep golden brown at the edges.Pizza Doughmakes one 10-inch crust1 1/2 cups almond flour1 cup arrowroot powder, plus more for dusting1/2 teaspoon Himalayan pink salt1/4 cup coconut yogurt, homemade (see page 26) or store-bought1/2 cup unsweetened almond milkIn a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, arrowroot, and salt. Slowly stir in the coconut yogurt and almond milk and mix with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms, about 1 minute.Place a large piece of parchment paper on a flat surface and sprinkle it with arrowroot. Turn out the dough onto the parchment and roll it out to a 10-inch round. Use as directed in our pizza recipes, our wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Two talkative women, Nicole and I, went on a roadtrip to Scone last March to what was to then be the last ‘live' Writers Festival for more than a year as COVID restrictions kicked in.  Within a month or so, Nicole's new podcast Books, Books, Books was up and underway featuring interviews with the best Australian and international writers about their new books that they could no longer promote or share live at book launches, writers festivals and other events.  One of Nicole's first interviews was with Julia Baird about her inspiring book Phosphorescence. Julia's very personal and uplifting book about healing, hope and the solace of nature - and immersion in it – is absolutely one that's pitch perfect for the times, and has rapidly become a popular bestseller.  Listen in and enjoy hearing from Nic as we chat about and chew on podcasting, why writers write and about some special authors and recent books that speak to and about the precariousness of things and the vulnerabilities of living with climate change, bushfires and COVID, loss and hope.  Join us to hear about Claire Thomas's new novel The Performance and James Bradley's Ghost Species, hear practical tips about how to manage eco-anxiety and positively engage with friends and colleagues about climate action from Rebecca Huntley, author or the non-fiction book, How to Talk About Climate Change.  And enjoy a bite from the gorgeous book Animals Make Us Human, a compilation of wonderful short pieces about ‘animals' by 40 well loved Australians. Instigated and edited by Leah Kaminsky and Meg Kenneally, this book shares reflections and stories from a myriad of voices who each  respond to the grief and loss of so many animals and biodiversity from the 2019/2020 black summer.   Animals Make Us Human is an absolute jewel of a book and a call to action.

Episode 67: Bullying Prevention With Guest Dr. Claire Thomas-Duckwitz In this episode, we discuss eliminating bullying against students with special needs. Guest Dr. Claire Thomas-Duckwitz defines bullying as being mean on purpose, imbalance of power, being one-sided, and happening over and over again. An enormous percentage of children with special needs reported being bullied in school, so it is even more important to have a bullying prevention program in schools. Bullying prevention programs should include weekly instruction around concepts, embedding those concepts into the classroom discussions, skill building, good/effective playground supervision, noticing good behaviors, communication between paraprofessionals and teachers, parent training and meetings, the school spending time on positive values, and  having positive relationships with the students.   Parent education should include educating parents on what bullying is, sending home letters to parents of topics to think about, and training parents on how to be advocates for your kids. It is important that teachers get training on how to respond to bullying. Training kids how to be specific about their words, choosing the right moment to report it, training kids how to be upstanders, explaining to kids what the special needs are/mean and why certain behaviors occur, ensuring that there is no opportunity for retaliation, and adequate supervision of children in the halls are all key. Parents should use authoritative parenting and provide their children with warmth. Schools should have a clear written bullying policy, have an evidence based bullying curriculum, talk about what it means to be an upstander, have advocacy goals should be included in the IEP, teach what bullying is and isn’t and use precise language, teach children how to report mean behaviors, and teach them who to report bullying to. After the child has been bullied, validate their feelings, teach the kids to report the bullying, report the bullying yourself, and/or role play with your child what to do.

At the Athens Olympics, Paula Radcliffe isn't only the fastest competitor on the start-line of the women's marathon: she is the best women's marathon runner there has ever been, and by a matter of minutes. She finished 5th on the track in Atlanta, and 4th in Sydney, but has since moved to the roads with enormous success, and the gold medal has been all but hung around the world record holder's neck. But then, out on the hot and humid streets of Athens, the unthinkable happens: with just four miles remaining, Radcliffe stops, and collapses onto the pavement. Her Olympic dream, again, is in tatters. In the company of Claire Thomas, she reflects on where it all went wrong, and how - across a truly glittering career - an Olympic title remained so very elusive...

Episode 47: Emotion Regulation in Children With ADHD and Autism With Guest Dr. Claire Thomas-Duckwitz In this episode, we discuss emotion regulation in children with ADHD and autism. Guest Dr. Claire Thomas-Duckwitz discusses that emotion regulation means managing strong emotions. Emotions have two parts: the physiological aspect and the subjective feeling state. To regulate emotions, you need to notice them and then manage them. Emotion dyregulation is defined as not effectively managing strong emotions. There are two types of behaviors that stem from emotion dysregulation: internalizing and externalizing behaviors. Internalizing behaviors are when one holds the emotions in, and this may look like anxiety and depression. A person might withdraw, and have headaches, stomacheaches, and/or dizziness. Externalizing behaviors happen when one expresses emotions outwardly, such as verbal or physical aggression. It is important to note that all emotions have purpose. There is no such thing as good or bad emotions, just comfortable and uncomfortable emotions. Subtle emotions come first, and then the big ones, but we tend not to pay attention to the subtle ones, which we also need to pay attention to. It is important to note that emotions are transient. One can imagine that emotions are like clouds in the sky and just move on by. She recommends observing negative self talk and replacing it with realistic self-talk. To prevent dysregulation, practicing mindfulness is very helpful. Mindfulness is being aware of your body in the moment, without judging your feelings or thoughts. It can bring permanent positive changes in the brain. Dr. Thomas-Duckwitz usually has her students use different mindfulness apps, as they provide needed structure. She recommends engaging in daily mindfulness. It is important for parents to help cue the children, because children often forget. One can use strategies such as noticing your breath or being mindfulness of sounds, or 54321 grounding. 54321 grounding is the following: noticing 5 things you see, 4 things you hear, 3 things you feel, 2 things you smell, and 1 thing you taste. She recommends using this strategy when one is experiencing strong emotions to get one back in the moment. If one is noticing that their mind is wandering during mindfulness practice, she recommends thinking "oops" and then bringing their mind back to breathing. Parents of children with autism can find and read social stories for mindfulness to their children to help them learn the strategies. She also recommends using biofeedback strategies. There are lots of things that parents can do to help their children with emotion regulation. First, parents need to regulate their own emotions. We can show our emotions and then model/explain what we are doing to manage them; in other words, narrate our experience. If we "mess up," we can tell our children what we should have done instead. Parents can also cue their children to engage in mindfulness and biofeedback strategies. Parents can also help children notice the child's strong emotions in the moment. We can help in other moments by naming subjective feeling states.

As a lifelong amateur baker, Laurel Gallucci had to remove gluten, dairy, and refined sugar from her diet when she was diagnosed with the autoimmune disease Hashimoto's. She had to re-learn how to eat, and applied this newfound knowledge to her love of baking. Eventually, Laurel teamed up with her partner Claire Thomas to create Sweet Laurel Bakery, an Instagram and marketing phenomenon that has lead to two cookbooks and brick-and-mortar bakeshop in the Palisades Village. Tune in to hear Laurel discuss the origins of Sweet Laurel (hint: branding came before business) and how her business is presently scaling to cater to its rapidly growing, niche fan base.

In Episode 8 of Series 2 of The Rights Track, Claire Thomas, Deputy Director of Minority Rights Group, talks about upholding the rights of minority ethnic, linguistic and religious communities around the world. 0.00-6.07 Claire explains that MRG works with communities or groups rather than individuals who may be different because of the language they speak, their religion or their ethnicity. Further explanation of the areas of the world in which MRG works. Todd asks Claire what she makes of recent indications from the US and the UK that there might be some sort of a “roll back” in their commitment to international human rights. Claire outlines her concerns about what she sees as a ‘dramatic rise' in anti migrant, anti refugee attitudes and associated hate crime over the last year in a number of countries, all of which goes against what MRG stands for. Brief discussion of recent political events in The Netherlands and France, which saw a rise in support for the far right ahead of recent elections. 6.07-09.08 The sort of work that MRG does: advocating for minorities, working with refugees and migrants on the ground to capture evidence, and helping them speak for themselves locally, nationally and internationally at events such as Universal Periodic Reviews (UPRs). Claire mentions a major piece of work in Iraq where MRG is gathering information electronically as part of its efforts to protect vulnerable groups and more traditional ‘on the ground' work in South Asia to promote and protect religious freedoms. Todd asks at what point MRG pulls back from a community or country to let them manage issues themselves. 09.08 - 17.54 Claire and Todd discuss the challenges of identifying a route to success and following it. They talk about a log frame (logical framework) approach to activities designed to promote human rights. Claire points out the need for flexibility because of changing conditions and contexts. What success looks like - when does MRG know its work has had an impact? Claire explains that its not all about what MRG does itself, but how it might have influenced others e.g. a duty bearer to make a change so credit is inevitably shared. Claire explains how MRG approaches a new project by identifying what the big blocking factors are to realising rights. She explains how MRG tries to get to the discriminatory attitudes in people's heads as well as tackling discriminatory practices by changing laws. 17.54-22.00 Claire describes a street theatre programme in 7 countries to tackle racism. Further discussion about the challenges in evaluating the effectiveness of programmes like this. 22.00-end Todd asks Claire whether its possible to put the more extreme and hateful attitudes that have been unleashed in recent months back in their ‘Pandora's Box'. Claire thinks there has been a recent resurgence in the values of diversity but says it's not clear how it will be done or how long it will take.

Diffusé en direct le 9 nov. 2015 Entretien le Lundi 9 Novembre à 20h00 heure de Paris (14h00 heure du Québec) avec Claire Thomas « L'Art Médiumnique » Les peintres médiums : - Augustin Lesage - Luis Gasparetto Voici le lien pour assister au direct et poser vos questions : https://plus.google.com/events/ckog1m... L'Art médiumnique désigne les productions plastiques ou littéraires de personnes qui ne s'attribuent pas directement la parenté de leurs œuvres, mais se considèrent comme des intermédiaires, des "médiums" à travers lesquels s'expriment des forces ou des esprits. La vocation de la plupart d'entre eux est d'ailleurs née de la rencontre et de la pratique du Spiritisme, entre la seconde moitié du xixe siècle et la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il peut être le fait de personnes n'ayant eu aucune production artistique auparavant, ou bien d'artistes qui, en parallèle ou à la suite de leur activité artistique "normale", se mettent à créer des œuvres de type médiumnique. L'art médiumnique pouvant aussi être vu comme l'exploration des profondeurs de l'Inconscient pour en faire émerger des écrits et des dessins, il anticipa et accompagna le concept et la pratique de l'automatisme Surréaliste. De même, le caractère intuitif, solitaire de l'art médiumnique et l'utilisation de moyens picturaux originaux ne relevant d'aucune tradition et d'aucun enseignement académique ont amené ses créateurs à être intégrés dans l'Art brut.
