In this weeks episode we discussed 6 ways of breaking free from creative blocks for ourselves and for you. Tune in to hear us discuss the following ideas:

1- Acting from your values not from your mood
2- Doing something familiar
3- Doing something wild and different
4- Looking to a non art source
5- Engaging with other artists work
6- Working it out in community

In this week we interviewed Lydia Figes. Lydia is a writer, editor and art historian who is currently curator of digital at Contemporary Art Society. Lydia has just released her debut book called Survival Notes, Life Lessons From Contemporary Artists in which she interviews established artists from all areas of the art world on topics such as art education, self-discipline, gallery representation and mental well-being. We loved chatting to Lydia and reading Survival Notes. We really appreciated the wisdom and insights she shared in this conversation alongside her new book. Make sure to buy and check it out.

This week we had the chance to talk online with artist Damaris Athene, on the verge of her first major London commercial solo exhibition. We talked with Damaris about her recent successes and opportunities that have come out of committing an intense amount of time to her practice, but also the other side of success - how running on the treadmill of the art world has caused burn out, unhealthy practices and losing sight of what its all about. This was a real honest interview and we hope it resonates with you all. D+M
