Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Donna Watson: Essence of Identity
Q: What is the core purpose of your masterclass Essence of Identity?
To help artists uncover their own voice and translate personal identity into authentic, meaningful artwork rather than simply teaching techniques.
Nicola Bennett: Edible Abstraction
Q: Are you able to talk about the experience of someone taking the course at a much slower pace, and whether lifetime access through the student community affects value over time?
Students can join a fresh cohort even after eight weeks, and the community group provides ongoing learning and support; lifetime access to the student community means you keep gaining insight as your work evolves, so the course remains valuable over time.
Sarah Brayer: Art as meditation
Q: What is the background of the course and where did the techniques come from?
The course draws on Brayer's own studio practice and color explorations, anchored by the book Unfolding Through Art by Nam Jo Rinpoche; it combines color theory, meditation cues, and mandala-based exercises to foster self-exploration rather than rigid outcomes.
From the archives: Folding quiet forms with Kinga Földi
Q: And did you do the headdresses as well, Kinga?
Yes, I made the costumes and the props and everything; in some projects I work with a team or atelier, but I also did a lot of it myself depending on the theatre.
From the archives: Between life and form with Juz Kitson
Q: How do you approach conveying the concept of your pieces to audiences or galleries, especially given the complexity of your works?
She emphasizes that while theory helps, the strongest communication often comes from the work itself and universal themes; she sometimes writes in the third person to gain objectivity and clarity about her narrative.
