Georgia Powell and Liza Shapiro

Molly Segal is an artist and teacher from Oakland, California who lives and works in Los Angeles. Her use of watercolour on a slick, plastic paper highlights her artistic process and results in powerful paintings that provoke a lasting visceral response for the viewer. Segal describes her paintings as works “that explore fragile connections and limited reserves, both environmentally and emotionally. 

Segal’s work has appeared in exhibitions throughout the US including Charlie James Gallery, The Museum of Fine Arts Boston, Zevitas Marcus, and Northeastern Gallery 360. Her work has also been in publications including Full Blede, Venison Quarterly, Beautiful Decay, and Lapham’s Quarterly. 

Note: Correction;  in the episode, Molly refers to the 'London Calling' exhibition, which was at The Getty in 2016, rather than the Hammer Museum.
