Ana Maria Caballero - Alexandra Jabre | Visual Artist Studio Secrets: Blockchain Poetry and Spirituality in Contemporary Art

What if a visual artist’s favourite tool revealed their creative process and philosophies? Even to themselves? This dual artist series inquires about contemporary artists’ studio practices. What are really artists working with today? What materials do they cherish? What other disciplines are they looking at? Cuban artist Ana María Caballero and British-Lebanese artist Alexandra Jabre answer these questions and reveal what is behind their artworks.   Our two guests also discuss what it takes to embark on a creative life, what it takes to create poetry, sculpture, and more. What sacrifices do you make, what path do you take, and what kind of healing does art bring? Did you enjoy the episode?

An artist life can get as technical as it can be spiritual. In fact, they may be related... But most of all, a visual artist's hand guides you through the passion of following one’s vision, the pleasures of trusting an instinct, and the resilience it takes to work creatively. After all, creative processes are everywhere, for the visual artist as for any problem-solving situation, with an added philosophical twist. Music by Sarturn.Did the episode stir Art Wonderment memories?
