Steve Bannatyne - MoA Bonus Episode 36

In this bonus episode Gary Mansfield speaks to Steve Bannatyne (@steve.bannatyne)Steve Bannatyne was born and raised in Belfast during the troubles. After leaving home at 16, he studied Art and Design at Exeter College, then earned a BA in Graphic Design at Central Saint Martins. Steve’s work for an environmental protection charity has led him to explore working exclusively with waste materials. Stories can be found within, and memories provoked by, the shapes, textures and visible traces of previous use of discarded materials. His work can be place specific, referencing points on the landscape, or more abstract expressions, inspired by the colours and textures of the materials themselves.TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains conversations of early death, bereavement and suicide; If you have been effected by anything you may have heard, please consider contacting groups like @myblackdog_co or Samaritans on 126123For more information on the work of Steve Bannatyne go to: https://stevebannatyne.squarespace.com/To Support this podcast from as little as £3 per month: www.patreon/ministryofartsIf you would like to promote your work, exhibition or any other creative project, please contact us at:Social Media: @ministryofartsorgEmail: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
