Do I need school to be...

a graphic designer? with Georgina Henry


Listen Later

In this week's episode I'm talking to Georgina Henry, a graphic design student
from England and Luxemburg living in Rotterdam. Another face-to-face interview
where we talk about being rejected by all the design schools she applied to and
how an artistic residency in Berlin and the experience of sharing a studio with
others helped her develop a portfolio to then get into her first choice schools.
On this very fun interview we spoke about:
* Her experience at the Willem de Kooning Academy
* Screen printing and the word 'squeegee
* Developing a portfolio during an artistic residency
* Her mom as her greatest teacher and more!
