Ken Done

Ken Done loves music as much as he loves colour, and he tells stories the same way he paints: it’s vibrant. You might know his work from the 2000 Sydney Olympics, Vivid Sydney last year, the placemats in your house when you grew up, or your year 10 art class. His work is iconic. He sat down with Mia to share the stories and songs that have defined his 80-year love affair with Sydney Harbour, including a James Morrison collaboration, a dance with Audrey Hepburn, a long marriage, and a purple office. This episode was produced by Tanya Ali and Mia Hull. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
