Artist Faustine Badrichani: Capturing the Female Body, the trap of Instagram and life in Hong Kong.

from the last meeting of the week · host Fernando Mendez

In this episode, we wrap up a long week with French artist Faustine Badrichani. After 15 years in New York, Faustine and her family packed nine suitcases and moved to the "jungle" of Hong Kong. We dive deep into her creative journey, starting from a 365-day drawing challenge, to her upcoming showcase at Art Central.We discuss the evolution of her work—from painting to silicone body casting and unique vaseline-and-pigment body prints—and how motherhood profoundly shifts a woman's relationship with her body. Along the way, we debate the frustrating dynamics of modern social media, the bizarre censorship of the human body online, and why the Mediterranean Sea will always be the ultimate happy place.
