Artist Audrey Grant joins me for a reflective, quietly powerful conversation about Mary Martin’s Wall Construction and the deeper artistic ideas that run through both women’s work.

Audrey shares how she approaches Wall Construction, the geometry, the stillness, the discipline, the invitation to slow down. We talk about the connections between Mary Martin’s ordered structures and Audrey’s own practice, particularly her interest in presence, attention, and the emotional weight of space.

In this episode we explore:

  • What makes Wall Construction such a magnetic work
  • How Mary Martin balances precision with feeling
  • Why Audrey is drawn to silence, stillness and repetition
  • The shared language between their practices
  • What happens when you really look at an artwork, without rushing

A thoughtful, intimate episode for anyone who loves abstraction, process, and the hidden layers inside art.
