Conversations with artists about storytelling
These interview/conversations with artists, about story & storytelling, are accidental podcasts. They're part of a Develop Your Creative Practise process I undertook in 2021-2022, funded by Arts Council England.As part of an exploration of Storytelling, I interviewed artists working across a range of disciplines, about how they work with story, their creative processes & ways of working.Each interviewee introduced me to the next person; creating a chain of conversations across the UK's artistic landscape; from directors & writers, to composters, designers & digital content creators.They're pretty much unedited & contain language, opinions or views that solely reflect the speaker.
