I'm on a podcast!
I have been fortunate enough to be invited as a guest on Talking Distance Podcast by Bournemouth Arts By The Sea - hosted by Timo Peach.
Timo Peach (Momo:Tempo) is a music maker and creative based in Southbourne, with a particular interest in art’s place in ordinary life as well as how it shapes the world around us. If you want to see some of his awesome work, you can check out his website here or his Twitter page @momotempo.
Timo was commissioned by Bournemouth Arts by the Sea, who celebrated their tenth year, to chat with local creatives during the first national lockdown. The purpose of these podcasts was to provide the creatives with an opportunity to discuss their creative journeys as well as the challenges they have faced/continue to face. Each creative was asked to choose a location that was meaningful to them as creative individuals, and to also bring with them an artefact that they would like to leave behind for others on the journey to find.
I was so excited to have been given the opportunity to be a part of such a great project! My chat with Timo included an insight into my own work, how I got started on my journey and what attracted me to this area of work as well as how I was managing being a creative in the current crisis.
So if you are curious and would like to have an understanding of my creative journey and insight on how I view the world. Please tune in, it's online now!

Bonus!
I created a mini texture pack from images I took whilst recording this podcast, I have used them on the poster design below.
