Shall we take a trip to the Museum of Almost Realities?
April Soetarman makes art that lets us see the multitude of choices (or sometimes lack of choices), in our own lives and the world around us. Based in Queens, New York, April uses public facing art, interactive creative pieces, board games, and more to get people to pause and think about their agency in different ways.
We discuss how to find the hope and motivation to create art in this upside-world. How do you balance marketing with creation? How do you catch someone's attention? And how do you care for yourself when you're just so tired.
Plus - tune in to hear Tim bring in his pal Patti, and to hear Abbie make a bold proposal of friendship.
