In this live episode of Processa Talks, Kiara Cristina Ventura sits down with artist Emmanuel Massillon for a deep conversation on art, culture, and process. Together, they explore Emmanuel's practice, the stories behind his work, and how his identity and experiences shape his vision as an artist. Later in the episode, they are joined by artist Allen Golder-Carpenter to reflect on the Massillon's performance piece "Cell 72: The Cost of Confinement" at Harlesden High Street Gallery in London, where Allen inhabited the role of an inmate for three days in June 2025.Recorded live at Studio Processa as part of the Processa Social Club series, this conversation unfolds with honesty, laughter, and insight into the realities of navigating the art world as a young Black conceptual artist.About Emmanuel:Emmanuel Massillon (b. 1998, Washington D.C.) is a conceptual artist whose practice spans painting, sculpture, performance, and sound. His work critically examines race, identity, and culture—especially as they relate to people of African descent—drawing from his upbringing in inner-city D.C., his Haitian heritage, and lived experience. Rejecting strictly polished aesthetics, Emmanuel often works with raw, tactile materials — found objects, hand-carved wood, cultural memorabilia, even food products — to evoke history, memory, and material storytelling. His visual language channels influences like Jazz, R&B, Rap, folk art, and street vernacular, creating layered narratives that blur formal boundaries. Emmanuel has exhibited internationally, and his work is held in significant collections including the Baltimore Museum of Art, C21 Museum, The Flint Institute of Arts, and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.

On this episode of Post In Black, we talk to film and television editor Angela Latimer. Angela's career began as an assistant editor, where she worked on films and series like The Old Guard, Downsizing and Drop Dead Diva, to name a few. More recently, she has been an editor on some of television's most talked-about series, including Forever, Grown-ish, Bel-Air, Hush and First Kill.Having always wanted to get into the entertainment industry but not necessarily knowing how, she shares how editing first started off for her as a side hustle. We also get into how moving to LA and getting a Master of Fine Arts in Editing from the American Film Institute was a culture shock that proved to be a pivotal power move that enhanced her approach to editing.Angela lauds the power of thinking outside the box and how it's propelled her craft. She also shares priceless insights from her unique perspective as an editor in the film and television space.

Brian Bowen Smith, also known as BBS, joins Paris Chong for Episode 31. In this captivating episode, Brian discusses his illustrious career as a photographer, touching upon his "Angel show", held during COVID with Stephan Sco and Brandon Boyd. He opens up about the crucial role his wife, Shea, plays in managing his life and career, a partnership that has thrived for over 35 years. Brian attributes their relationship's success to staying busy and continually striving to impress each other, emphasizing that stagnation can make life difficult.Brian shares insights into his upbringing in Syracuse, New York, and how he transitioned into photography after an unexpected encounter with director Evan Stone in the nineties under the Brooklyn Bridge. He recounts his past acting experiences, including a role as Jennifer Aniston's boyfriend on *Friends* and a photographer on *The Morning Show*. He also reveals that in over 30 years, he's only had one truly bad experience with a celebrity, noting that most are appreciative and professional.The conversation then shifts to Brian's book, *Drivebys*, created during COVID using a monochrome camera. He describes how the project began in his Agoura Hills neighborhood, starting with a photo of a neighbor's daughter in a vintage Ford F-100 truck. The unplanned rainy weather led to a "ghostly" and "eerie" shot through the truck's windows, inspiring the entire series. Brian also hints at an upcoming mixed-media collaboration with a talented young neighbor, expressing his excitement for their artistic partnership. The episode concludes with a humorous discussion about their shared hyperactive personalities and a mention of Brian's gorgeous home in Agoura Hills, complete with old trucks and various animals.Show Notes:www.theparischongshow.com/episodes/brian-bowen-smith-from-friends-to-fine-art-drive-vision-and-the-unexpected-shotChapters:(00:00:00) Intro(00:00:34) Brian Bowen Smith(00:05:15) Moved to LA(00:09:54) ADHD(00:13:15) Big Fan of Painting(00:16:08) Brian's House(00:20:12) Drivebys(00:27:00) Moving to LA(00:31:34) Neighbors and Parties(00:35:37) Karma(00:40:36) Money Doesn't Equal Happiness(00:42:14) Being Brian Bowen Smith(00:46:53) Working on Now(00:53:37) See More of Brian(00:57:08) Outro

How can we empower more people, particularly young people from disinvested communities, to engage with architecture, and to use it as a tool to improve their daily lives and future prospects? Maya Bird-Murphy, the Chicago-based architect and educator, tells Alice Rawsthorn how she is addressing this through the Mobile Makers programme of youth workshops and community engagement projects..Maya describes how she launched Mobile Makers as a non-profit in 2017 and drove a retrofitted mail truck around Chicago to deliver after-school programmes, summer camps and field trips. Mobile Makers now operates from a permanent space in Humboldt Park, Chicago, and has launched programmes in Boston, Massachusetts and Aspen, Colorado. At a time of growing interest in socially engaged architecture and design, particularly among young designers, Maya describes the pros and cons of running a non-profit, and her plans to create a network of architects and social designers who are committed to developing radically new ways of working..We hope you'll enjoy this episode .

Planet Buzz's episode unearths '"ECLIPSE SEASON Unleashes Change" telling the resetting dynamics of the Pisces Lunar and the Virgo Solar Eclipses.Join us next Sunday to discuss the powerful lunar and solar eclipses. The Pisces Total Eclipse event, visible to 85% of the world outside of the Americas, holds a multitude of dynamic celestial patterns and is already creating a strong emotional pull. The eclipse will last for an hour and 22 minutes, and it's a perfect time for release. This particular lunar eclipse is at the North Pisces Node, a placement that encourages us to release what blocks compassion and to adopt a more spiritual view of our lives and the planet. As the Earth's shadow obscures the Moon from the Sun's light, we have a unique opportunity to reset our emotional attachments and direction. The Virgo partial Solar Eclipse will be visible from the South Pacific including New Zealand and parts of Antarctica. But here, 85% of the sun will be hidden behind the moon. At 29° Virgo, it adds to the paradox of energies of a Solar eclipse at the releasing South Node, besides the energetic degree one degree from the Vernal Equinox resetting new balances. However, this strongly powerful celestial event involves interweaving patterns of adjustments resolved over time. No matter, it initiates a map ahead for the next year to build on actions now.Talk Cosmos Planet Buzz connects with a myriad of new or returning Special Guests from around the USA and parts of the world contemplating potent subjects concerning us all.LOUISE EDINGTON: The Cosmic Owl wisdom keeper, Astrologer, Consultant, Teacher, Author, Blog Writer, Organizes Workshop Classes.

Edition No242 | 06-09-2025 - Europe gears up—again—for tougher sanctions on Russia but always seems to keep one foot on the brake at the same time as the accelerator. In Paris, the U.S. envoy, Witless Witkoff stormed in, then stormed out again, of a high stakes meeting with Zelenskyy and European leaders. And in Washington, the Trump White House talks tough, yet holds back on hitting Putin directly — every single time – while scolding Europe about Russian oil that still seeps in through economic cracks. Let's connect the dots, call out the pressures, and say the quiet part out loud: neither Europe, nor the U.S. have done anything that has real deterrence power. No wonder Putin is intent on continuing his war, with a sense of complete impunity. Europe's Sanctions Jitters, Paris Drama, and the Fine Art of Trump ManagementFirst the good news: Europe does understand the threat. After a Paris summit of the so-called “Coalition of the Willing,” European Council President António Costa confirmed that a team is flying to Washington to co-write a joint Russia sanctions package—explicitly including secondary sanctions in the draft. His words in Uzhhorod were unambiguous: “We are working with the U.S. and other partners to intensify our pressure through additional sanctions, both direct and secondary sanctions.” (Kyiv Independent, Sept. 5, 2025) Ukrainska Pravda reported the same: Brussels has already begun work on the next package and is sending a team to coordinate it with U.S. counterparts.

Have you ever looked at your work-in-progress and thought it was absolutely hideous? According to acclaimed sculptor Arlene Shechet, that's exactly where the magic happens.In this eye-opening exploration of artistic process, we dive deep into Shechet,'s philosophy of creation, where listening to your work becomes just as important as making it. The American sculptor, whose gravity-defying arrangements have earned places in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Whitney, reveals how embracing the "ugly" phases of creation leads to unexpected beauty."I have to have a real appetite for ugly," Shechet, confesses about her creative process. "There are so many points where this thing is just hideous and yet I have to believe in it." This sentiment resonates profoundly with our own artistic journeys—recognizing that every meaningful piece goes through an awkward adolescence before reaching maturity.What truly sets Shechet, apart is her approach to artistic control. After carefully crafting her ceramic sculptures, she surrenders them to a 2,000-degree kiln where "all bets are off." This balance between meticulous creation and acceptance of unpredictability forms the heart of her practice. She meticulously documents every experiment in notebooks, creating a scientific approach to artistic discovery that allows her work to continually evolve.We're particularly struck by Shechet,'s description of her studio as "both a farm and a factory"—a place that cultivates growth while producing tangible objects. Her commitment to pushing boundaries by creating open systems rather than settling into comfortable patterns mirrors our own philosophy of artistic development. When she declares, "I want to make something more than an idea," she articulates the ultimate challenge facing every serious artist: creating work that resists easy description and demands deeper engagement.Join us in this fascinating conversation about embracing discomfort, fighting against creative stagnation, and finding joy in the uncertain journey of making art that matters. Whether you're a seasoned creator or just beginning your artistic path, Shechet,'s wisdom offers valuable perspective on sustaining growth through perpetual discovery.Please visit:https://art21.org/watch/art-in-the-twenty-first-century/s7/arlene-shechet-in-secrets-segment/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dh_lDHY0ZO4https://www.frieze.com/video/arlene-shechet-and-sheena-wagstaff-frieze-masters-podcastSend us a message - we would love to hear from you!Make sure to follow us on Instagram here:@justmakeartpodcast @tynathanclark @nathanterborg

This week the American multidisciplinary artist and designer Hannah Polskin. Hannah combine's fine art and design to create a freeform aesthetic that melds across each project. She is most inspired when she has free rein to take over an entire space, which includes paintings, mirrors, kitchen islands, rugs, menorahs, etc. thus creating an entire visual concept. Hannah was born in New York City in 1989, the youngest of two daughters, to parents Philippa and Howard Polskin, both of who worked in public relations. It was in this environment that Hannah became enamored with office and studios spaces surrounded by her mother's art collection. This gave her the foundation for her ambitions in art and design so it was a natural choice for her to pursue a career in this field. She attended the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), graduating in 2007 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design.  Hannah then spent nine years working in consumer insights with a Fortune 500 company, which gave her a range of skills that would help her develop her own business. In 2016, she established her own studio in Los Angeles and in 2019 held her first solo show. She describes her style as calm and serene with an energy that becomes therapy while embracing life and love. Her goal is to continue to expand her art to include other mediums such as doors, antiques, jewelry, roman coins, candles and table top sculptures. Hannah lives in Los Angeles with her husband Gil Manzuri. Hannah's links:https://www.hannahpolskin.com/ https://www.instagram.com/hannahpolskinstudio Hannah's favorite female artists:Meret Oppenheim (d)Tracey EminAustyn Weiner Host: Chris StaffordProduced by Hollowell StudiosFollow @theaartpodcast on Instagram AART on FacebookEmail: hollowellstudios@gmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wisp--4769409/support.

Taking place in the world's driest desert, the exhibition emphasized the connection between art and science, seeking to showcase contemporary artworks in spaces all over the city of Antofagasta. The show, presented in a region whose economy is dedicated almost exclusively to mining of rare earth minerals like copper and lithium, celebrates what they call the "dark biosphere," which may include subsurface microorganisms that defy any theory about what life can endure. Yet this Dark Biosphere can be interpreted as the multitude of ways that people and communities can survive and thrive in this most inhospitable desert.

Merv and Nicki dive into the value (or lack thereof) of a formal education when it comes to art.

We rejoin Herman Daly in the  late 1970s - a tumultuous time for our renegade economist.  Partnering with theologian John Cobb Jr., Daly began to rebuild economics from the ground up, reframing it around values, community, and the planet that sustains us.Woven through this intellectual journey are stories of faith, family, and friendship that helped Daly persevere. We hear how he sparked a global community of scholars and inspired whole new movements, ranging from wellbeing and regenerative economics to the circular economy and doughnut economics.Featured in this episode:Gaya Herrington, Wellbeing economist & thought leaderJennie King, Senior Fellow at ISDPeter Victor, Ecological economist & author of Herman Daly's Economics for a Full WorldSandrine Dixson-Declève, Global Ambassador for The Club of RomeRobert Costanza, Ecological economistTerri Daly Stewart, Senior Occupational Therapist, and Herman and Marcia's eldest daughterKaren Daly Junker, Senior Manager of Provenance Research at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and Herman and Marcia's youngest daughterBrian Czech, Executive Director of CASSERob Dietz, Program Director at the Post-Carbon Institute and co-host of Crazy TownColvis Cavalcanti, Ecological economistKaty Shields, Regenerative economist, and co-creator/host of Tipping PointKatherine Trebeck, Political economistThank you to the Daly family for their generous support in sharing Herman's story, and to Barbara Barros, C40 Global Head of Adaptation Finance, for voicing Marcia Daly's email in this episode.Thank you also to our series consultants and fact checkers, Peter Harnik, Rob Dietz, and Peter Victor, who also graciously supplied the interview tape with Herman Daly, recorded in 2022.Visit the Cities 1.5 podcast page on UTP's website for the media citations used in this episode.If you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website: https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/ Cities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and Cities 1.5 is supported by C40 Cities and the C40 Centre for City Climate Policy and Economy.

About Amy:Although I'm best known as a yoga therapist for my books and teachings on Yoga and mental health, Yoga for Depression (Harmony Books), Yoga Skills for Therapists (W.W. Norton), and my new card deck Yoga for Your Mood (Sounds True), my passion, ever since I picked up a pencil in the second grade, was to write a book with a character like Nancy Drew who could transport me to a world beyond my suburban bedroom. I grew up in Pittsburgh before it was green and beautiful. Like the darkened riverfront lit by the coal fires of J & L Steel, my world view was bleak. I read to find a brighter place in other worlds, and I wanted to write books that could meet that bleakness and transcend it. In pursuit of that desire, I returned to school, earning the Master of Fine Arts in literary fiction from Bennington College Writing Seminars in 2000.My short fiction and poetry appeared in numerous literary journals. I received the Allen Tate Memorial Award for the Short Story and was a finalist for the William Faulkner Award for the Novel and for the Heekin Group Foundation Fellowship for the novel-in-progress. I also received Second Place, in the Writer's Digest Writing Competition for Literary Fiction.I began my love affair with yoga in the late 1980's, after a successful career in television broadcasting that garnered the documentaries I wrote and produced national and regional awards but did not alleviate my chronic depression. When I started practicing yoga daily, with supervision, I was able to titrate off medication and find joy in the world once again. As my practice deepened, I wrote for magazines like Yoga Journal and Yoga International and wrote the first feature article about yoga and depression called “Yoga the Natural Prozac”, which appeared on the cover of Yoga Journal in 1999. My own recovery led me to research and write books on yoga and mental health, and I became passionate about sharing what had helped me heal with others who suffered.In 2004, I founded the LifeForce Yoga® Healing Institute, which continues to train yoga teachers and health care providers in yoga practices appropriate in clinical and yoga therapy settings. I'm happy that the evidence-based yoga protocol for managing mood I developed is in use in health care settings throughout the world. This protocol is featured on audio-visual products, including the LifeForce Yoga series, an award-winning library of evidence-based yoga and meditation CDs and DVDs for mood management.I love yoga and continue to teach workshops and trainings, but a book by my dear yogi brother and friend Stephen Cope called The Great Work of Your Life, set me on a course to reclaim my dharma. I returned to writing fiction in 2016, and though I have written several other novels, TEMPLE DANCER is the first to be published.Amy's WebsiteSupport the show

For many artists, an art career takes many twists and turns—an adventure shaped by different mediums, jobs, and ways of sustaining creative work  while at the same time, educating oneself with the histories of your chosen path.  On this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with printmaker Charles Spitzack. We talk about his discovery of mokuhanga and how it connects to his broader printmaking practice. Charles shares his early experiences making mokuhanga, his teaching methods, and how his understanding of the medium developed through a Western American perspective. He also speaks about his time at the Mokuhanga Project Space, and his thoughts on the differences between oil-based and water-based mokuhanga.

More info can be found, here.  Mokuhanga (木版画) - is a Japanese word meaning "wood" and "print." Traditionally, it refers to a relief printing method using woodblocks, water, natural handmade papers, and water-based pigments. With the rise of the sōsaku hanga (creative print) movement in the early to mid 20th century, mokuhanga expanded to include works made with Western oil pigments as well. Today, mokuhanga can be difficult to define, as many artists experiment with new approaches while others remain dedicated to traditional water-based methods. This balance between innovation and tradition shows that mokuhanga is limitless, continually evolving while still grounded in its past. sōsaku-hanga - or creative prints, is a style of printmaking which is predominantly, although not exclusively, prints made by one person. It started in the early twentieth century in Japan, in the same period as the shin-hanga movement. The artist designs, carves, and prints their own works. The designs, especially in the early days, may seem rudimentary but the creation of self-made prints was a breakthrough for printmakers moving away from where only a select group of carvers, printers and publishers created woodblock prints.  Stephen Hazel (1934-20120 - was a painter and printmaker based in the Pacific Northwest. He created works on paper, and educated upon the subject.

Unlike most printmaking methods, where multiple copies of the same image can be produced, a monotype typically has a single, one-of-a-kind image. It's called a "mono" type because it is not part of an edition like traditional prints (e.g., lithographs, etchings), where you can make multiple copies.  Mike Lyon  -  is an American artist. His medium has varied throughout his career such as "square tiles," or "pixels," through to making mokuhanga, monoprinting, and machine-assisted etching, drawing and mezzotint.

Inspired by the ideals of John Ruskin (1819-1900) and William Morris (1834-1896) in Britain, the movement in the United States was closely tied to architecture, furniture making, and decorative arts, promoting honesty and a functional beauty.  There was a link with social reform, criticizing modernity and industry and fostering communities of makers across the country. In Japan this folk movement was explored in the mingei movement of the early 20th Century.  William S. Rice (1873-1963) - was a painter, educator and woodblock artist from the United States.

Philip Hoffman is here to share his journey from CPA to investing in fine art. He founded The Fine Art Group, where he advises wealthy families on art investing, valuations, lending, and education. He outlines the global art market as a $60 billion industry with only $6–10 billion considered truly investable, highlights the risks and pitfalls of treating art as an asset class without expert guidance, and shares cautionary tales of investors losing millions by buying discounted works without due diligence, contrasted with success stories where expertise and timing led to strong returns. We discuss...  Philip Hoffman began his career as a CPA at KPMG, later became CFO and youngest board director at Christie's, and eventually founded The Fine Art Group. His firm advises wealthy families across 28 countries on art transactions, valuations, education, and art-backed lending. Investable art includes high-value works, jewelry, vintage cars, and luxury items like Hermès handbags, while most antiques and collectibles fall outside this category. Investors can access art through funds, private credit against art, direct ownership, or syndication with others. Hoffman emphasizes that art buyers should use reputable advisors, much like when purchasing real estate, to avoid costly mistakes. A client once spent $4 million on 40 polo paintings by an unknown artist with no resale market, ultimately finding them worthless. Using an advisor costs a fraction of an artwork's price but can prevent costly mistakes. Even seasoned collectors often misjudge valuations; in one example, most experts mistook a $1M Monet for a $10M Monet. Condition issues, provenance gaps, and theft risks make professional due diligence essential in high-value purchases. Current market conditions—with top-tier art down 20–30% from recent highs—make this one of the best times in decades to buy blue-chip works. Wealthy collectors often allocate about 5% of their portfolio to art, balancing enjoyment with investment. The black market exists, but high-profile stolen works are nearly impossible to sell through reputable channels. Damage usually devastates value, though rare cases like Banksy's shredded artwork increased in worth due to notoriety. Mishandling in storage, shipping, or moving can ruin artworks, highlighting the importance of professional logistics. Over decades, disciplined art investors with good advisors typically achieve strong compounded returns comparable to or exceeding equities.

Kate Burling (b.1998, Reading) lives and works in South East London. Her iridescent finger-paintings examine a corporeal experience of exponential change. Marking the inside and outside of the skin as initial zones of softness and hardness respectively, Burling observes a gradual obscuring of boundaries as the sponge-like body ages and absorbs. Her paintings are amalgamations of rolling mass with repeated motifs, scattered like confetti. They are places of rumination, where the artist attempts to catch elusive ideas and map them in soft, organic space. Since completing her BA in Fine Art at Camberwell College in 2022, Burling has presented two solo shows with Nosbaum Reding (Brussels) and Ronchini Gallery (London), as well as taking part in a number of group exhibitions at Christie's, Guts Gallery, Soup Gallery and Milan Art Fair, and residencies at Goodeye Projects, Pictorum Gallery (both London) and Fondazione Sandro Moretti (Umbria). Since November 2024, Kate Burling has been a participant at the Conditions Studio Programme in Croydon. She is currently working towards a breadth of projects within the programme and externally, including a solo show with Solito Gallery, Naples in October 2025.

Episode 489 / Alexis RockmanBorn in 1962 in New York, Alexis Rockman has depicted a darkly surreal vision of the collision between civilization and nature – often apocalyptic scenarios on a monumental scale – for over three decades. Notable solo museum exhibitions include “Alexis Rockman: Manifest Destiny” at the Brooklyn Museum (2004), which traveled to several institutions including the Wexner Center for the Arts (2004) and the Rhode Island School of Design (2005). In 2010, the Smithsonian American Art Museum organized “Alexis Rockman: A Fable for Tomorrow,” a major touring survey of his paintings and works on paper. Concurrent with Rockman's 2013 exhibition at Sperone Westwater, the Drawing Center mounted “Drawings from Life of Pi,” featuring the artist's collaboration with Ang Lee on the award-winning film Life of Pi. His series of 76 New Mexico Field Drawings was included in “Future Shock” at SITE Santa Fe (2017-18). “Alexis Rockman and Mark Dion: A Journey to Nature's Underworld” was presented at the Bruce Museum, Greenwich, CT (2023) and traveled to the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art (2024). It will be on view at the Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, NY until 5 January 2025, and at the Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State from August 30th through December 7th. His work is represented in many museum collections, including the Baltimore Museum of Art; Brooklyn Museum; Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art; Grand Rapids Art Museum; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; New Orleans Museum of Art; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Smithsonian American Art Museum; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; and Whitney Museum of American Art. Rockman's first solo exhibition with Sperone Westwater, “Evolution,” was presented in 1992.

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes IIRP alumnus Joseph Iacona to the Restorative Works! Podcast. We are joined by Joseph as he takes us behind the scenes of projects in schools, libraries, prisons, shelters, and behavioral health facilities, revealing how restorative practices create authentic collaboration between artists and communities. He shares powerful stories, including a mural co-created with youth aging out of the foster care system—a project that evolved into a living, breathing space of connection and care years after the paint dried. As a featured speaker at the IIRP's upcoming World Conference on Artful Integration, Joseph offers a preview of his presentation on the parallels between successful public art projects and restorative leadership. He issues a call to action for more intentional partnerships between artists and restorative practitioners to use art as a tool for authentic collaboration and social change. Joseph is a visual artist and restorative practitioner. He has initiated more than 100 community art projects in schools, libraries, museums, prisons, shelters, behavioral health facilities, and other public service centers. As the director of the Mural Arts Institute for Mural Arts Philadelphia, the United States' largest public art nonprofit, he develops resources on community driven mural-making for other artists and public art advocates around the world. Joseph holds a Master of Science in Restorative Practices with a specialization in Community Engagement from the IIRP and a Bachelor of Fine Art with concentrations in painting and art history from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. He's an upcoming featured speaker at the IIRP's next World Conference on Artful Integration, Exploring the Art and Science of Restorative Practices. Tune in to hear more from Joseph as he explores how defining “community” is an essential first step, and how tools like narrative mapping can uncover shared values and vision.

Join Kate for an interview with Lisa D. Watson, an artist, gardener, and activist.    Lisa D. Watson (b.1967) grew up in Northeast Ohio where she spent many days in the wooded forest behind her childhood home. The day the bulldozers flattened the forest to a suburb was the day she found her lifelong mission; tell the stories of the voiceless species of the natural world.  Watson received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Columbus College of Art & Design in Columbus, Ohio. Since her academic studies, she has used salvaged objects as her medium.  Through her art and garden designs, Watson strives to find balance between urbanization and conservation. Her company, Plan it Green Design, LLC, provides homeowners with creative and sustainable design solutions, emphasizing the use of native plant species. Currently she is collaborating with The Georgia Plant Conservation Alliance, The Longleaf Alliance, and the Georgia Native Plant Society. After receiving a Certificate of Interior Design in Chatsworth, California, Lisa moved to Savannah, Georgia and works out of her studio and native garden.

What happens when your creative process becomes a mirror, reflecting back the deepest parts of your identity? I sit down with abstract artist Gina Tyquiengco to discuss her winding creative path, from teaching herself graphic design to finding her voice as a painter.  Gina explains how her signature black, white, and gold palette is a deliberate reflection of her Guamanian and African American heritage, duality, and spirituality.

We follow Herman from the lecture halls of Louisiana to the forests of Brazil – and through a period of global upheaval and personal transformation. Herman was profoundly shaped by the realities of inequality and ecological fragility in the Global South. These experiences helped crystallize his vision of a steady-state economy; one that operates within the planet's ecological limits and prioritizes human wellbeing and ecological boundaries over endless growth.With reflections from his family and followers, this episode captures the moment Daly's thinking moved from quiet resistance to creating economic theories that would go on to have a truly global influence. Featured in this episode:Colvis Cavalcanti, ecological economistBrian Czech, Author of Shoveling Fuel for a Runaway Train and executive director of the Center for the Advancement of the Steady State EconomyRob Dietz, Program Director at the Post-Carbon Institute, co-author of Enough is Enough, and co-host of Crazy TownTerri Daly Stewart, Senior Occupational Therapist and Herman and Marcia's eldest daughterKaren Daly Junker, Senior Manager of Provenance Research at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and Herman and Marcia's youngest daughterDenis Lynn Daly Heyck (Deni), Professor Emeritus of Spanish language and literature and Herman's sisterKaty Shields, Regenerative economist and co-creator/host of Tipping PointPeter Victor, Professor Emeritus of ecological economics & author of Herman Daly's Economics for a Full WorldKate Raworth, Author of Doughnut Economics and co-founder of the Doughnut Economics Action LabThank you to the Daly family for their generous support in sharing Herman's story.Thank you also to our series consultants and fact checkers, Peter Harnik, Rob Dietz, and Peter Victor, who also graciously supplied the interview tape with Herman Daly, recorded in 2022.Visit the Cities 1.5 podcast page on UTP's website for the media citations used in this episode.If you want to learn more about the Journal of City Climate Policy and Economy, please visit our website: https://jccpe.utpjournals.press/ Cities 1.5 is produced by the University of Toronto Press and Cities 1.5 is supported by C40 Cities and the C40 Centre for City Climate Policy and Economy.

At some point in our lives, we all step into the void. Something so big happens that we struggle even to make sense of it.  This week Andrew is in conversation with artist JESSA FAIRBROTHER about finding our way through the pain of these unwanted experiences without getting trapped in repeating loops.  We discuss: How grief over the loss of her parents and experiences of infertility have shaped Jessa's work as an artist.  Finding value and beauty inside the void. The cultural concept of the happy ending.  The transformative power of art.  Jessa Fairbrother is a British visual artist whose work spans stitch, photography, performance and drawing. The body is her main material. The artist book of her work Conversations with my mother, is held in collections at Tate Britain, the V&A, London and The Museum of Fine Art, Houston. Her companion piece, Role Play (Woman with Cushion) is included in Acts of Creation: On Art and Motherhood, a Hayward Touring exhibition travelling the UK throughout 2024-2025. Jessa became an RWA Academician in 2023. In 2025 she was awarded a DYCP award from ACE to expand her interdisciplinary writing and is authoring her experimental hybrid memoir.

The Kaleidoscope Visions panel presents this month's “VIRGO MOON PHASES Pisces Lunar Eclipse” where mutable moons stir massive shifts.“Get ready for a powerful new lunar cycle! It all kicks off with a new moon at the very start of Virgo. This journey will take us through a series of mutable signs, building towards a dramatic moment: a lunar eclipse at 15 degrees Pisces. This first of two eclipses beautifully highlights the dynamic tension between the broad, sweeping consciousness of Pisces and the careful, focused detail of Virgo. Eclipses are a time for redefining and starting fresh," explains founder and host, Sue Minahan. “This month is a chance for us to discover how we can serve our truth and nurture those around us. As we move through the Gemini 3rd quarter moon, we'll be thinking about how to fix what's broken before the final curtain call of this cycle: the solar eclipse at 29 degrees Virgo.” The moon's our personal planet regulating the past coming into the present. Weekly the moon systematic monthly cycle transitions from the New Moon to first quarter, Full Moon, and third quarter moon phases. Daily moving 12-13 degrees, the moon moves through a Zodiac sign in two & a half days.Joining Sue Rose Minahan from Kailua-Kona, Big Island, Hawai'i are Kaleidoscope Visions panel members, Amanda Pierce, and John Chinworth of Seattle.

Rohan Blair-Mangat brings a sharp, painter's eye to filmmaking, shaped by his roots in Jamaica, India, and London. With a degree in Fine Art from Central Saint Martins, his work vibrates with bold visuals and layered storytelling. This episode of Visual Intonation dives into the early influences that shaped his creative voice and the moments that first sparked his passion behind the lens.From award-winning music videos to global commercial campaigns, Rohan's portfolio reads like a cultural mixtape. He has collaborated with icons including JAY-Z, Lionel Messi, Maya Rudolph and Nas, crafting visual narratives that are as emotionally rich as they are technically masterful. We explore what it takes to bring out the human core in star-driven projects, and how Rohan balances art with scale.We also dig into the stories behind his standout works—like the haunting short film “Bam,” video with Jay-Z, and the cinematic journey of “Nasir – The Film.” Rohan shares how each project challenged him differently, and why music continues to be a powerful entry point into larger cultural conversations.Now based in Los Angeles, Rohan is developing original film and television projects with the same precision and perspective that define his short-form work. Join us as we talk vision, identity and the rhythm that drives a director at the intersection of art and impact.Rohan Blair-Mangat's Website: https://rohanbm.com/Rohan Blair-Mangat's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rohanbm/?hl=enRohan Blair-Mangat's IMDB: https://m.imdb.com/name/nm3337828/Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

In the second part of my conversation with Lisa See, author of Lady Tan's Circle of Women, The Island of Sea Women, and more, we talked about the interior side of writing–things like dealing with your inner critic and dealing with the parts of writing and of life you would really rather not do, including:- The fascinating tidbit of information her research taught her about Los Angeles- How the Chinese public discourse about the smallpox epidemic that occurred 500 years ago is eerily similar to the controversy over Covid vaccines- The predictable emotional rollercoaster she rides each time during the revision process- Why writers should start celebrating good sentences the way Olympians celebrate an important point- The ninja trick of agreeing with your inner critic- A potential peril of becoming an internationally bestselling author- How the inevitable losses we experience with age can deepen your writing- The things she says no to now that she's the age that she is- Some of the beliefs and attitudes passed down through the Chinese side of her family she really had to work to cast off (and how her mother, who is not Chinese, helped)- Why reading fiction is her go-to personal development toolThis week's episodes are a replay. Hope you enjoy the last couple weeks of official summer and come back September 1 when I have a new guest–another author who specializes in historical fiction and telling women's stories that have been hidden or overlooked.Connect with Lisa on Instagram @lisasee_writer.For full show notes with links to everything we discuss, plus bonus photos!, visit katehanley.substack.com.Thank you for listening!And thanks to this week's sponsor, Air Doctor Pro.

In this episode of the Artist Academy podcast, I'm chatting with hyper-realistic painter and educator Christopher Remmers, and let me just say—his work is next level. I reached out to him because I was blown away by the level of detail in his paintings and just had to know what's going on behind the scenes.Christopher shares how he left behind a successful construction career to go all in on art, and how that leap of faith led to a fully booked commission schedule, an online academy, and projects that align with his creative vision.We get into:-His exact commission process (including pricing)-How he finds clients on purpose by pitching to aligned collaborators-His behind-the-scenes design workflow (spoiler: it's intense and brilliant)-The email funnel strategy he uses to stay booked-Why mindset and mastering your craft matter more than any marketing trickWhether you're just starting out or looking to grow, this episode will give you the push to take action and keep going.

Allison Schreiber is entering her seventh year as an early morning seminary teacher in New Braunfels, Texas—an experience she describes as one of the most joyful and spiritually rich callings of her life. Fluent in German and Russian, Allison served in the Russia Moscow Mission before earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from Brigham Young University, along with certification in International Color Consulting. Her dedication to sacred spaces led her to intern with the Temple Construction department, contributing to the designing of temples in Houston, Boston, and Nauvoo. A born leader and meticulous planner, Allison has worn many hats across decades of youth and community service, serving extensively in the Young Women organization. She's chaired committees, organized record-breaking Boy Scouts of America district events, and served on BSA Woodbadge staff for three consecutive years after completing the prestigious leadership training herself. Whether designing a youth conference or directing a camporee, Allison brings creativity, discipline, and a touch of grace to every detail. In her seminary classroom, Allison blends her vast experience with a personal mission: to make early morning Seminary not just bearable but transformational. Through intentional leadership moments and peer-supported learning, she cultivates a classroom culture where students feel empowered to plan, lead, and strengthen one another in faith. Links
