In this episode, I had the privilege of speaking with Aindrea Emelife, an art critic, independent curator, gallerist, and BBC television presenter from London. Aindrea is an incredibly inspiring and uplifting person to speak with as she has already accomplished so much in such a short timespan. She's young...but I won't say how young! Her most recent article in The Independent ‘There is a lot of hard work to be done’: How the art world can step up for Black Lives Matter is an insightful vision of how to make out our near future as the art world further contends with the issue of race and inequality.

With a background in art history and specializations in the medieval periods of European art history as well as Surrealism...Plagues plus lucid dreaming? Sounds like 2020 to me.  She offered a lot of insight into how we can rethink this moment and use it for actual systemic change. 

I hope you enjoy our conversation. Please send me a voice memo at anchor.fm and tell me what your thoughts on the episode.
