Art on a Podcast

'I've always been interested in lifting, the physical body and strength…I've also always found the protein structures really beautiful and I've always wanted to make some paintings around them…the two other works are about me managing to progress and managing to do pistol squats and then being able to do weighted pistol squats.' - Kristy

Kristy's pieces are part of our India Rose James Mini Auction - bidding is open until 21st April 2022 via The Auction Collective (@theauctioncollective).

In our fourth episode of our IWD 2022 series, we are delighted to interview Victoria Cantons! Victoria discusses her journey to becoming a painter, the stigma she has faced as a trans woman, and the cards (and words) she has submitted to this auction.

In our third episode Mollie sits down with Emma Cousin as she discusses her painting process, her use of colour, and her darkly comic subjects.

'I guess that's what painting is, it's like a puzzle, a jigsaw that you're inventing and then trying to solve.'

Emma's work will be featured in our International Women's Day Auction 2022. You can begin browsing our auction lots here: https://artonapostcard.com/pages/international-womans-day-auction-2022

In the second episode of the series, Mollie (@she_curates_) is in conversation with the phenomenal Charmaine Watkiss.

Jamaican-born Charmaine discusses her art as 'memory stories', often created with the African Caribbean diaspora in mind. The podcast discusses Charmaine's inspirations, her time in the fashion industry, her love of Klimt's symbolism and much more!

'For me, memory is something that's encoded within our DNA, so, if I'm going back into the archive and retrieving all of these lost stories for me it is kind of like connecting to memory, but an ancestral kind of memory - I thin it's important to share things, and as artists we're often just sharing human stories.' - Charmaine

Cathy Tabbakh is a French painter working between France and the UK, with a passion for the mesmerising power of colour. She has been exhibited in both London and her native France, and holds degrees in Fashion Textile; major in Textile Design and minor in Fine Art (2011) and Art History and Archaeology (2017) - both in Lyon. Tabbakh’s work can be found in private collections worldwide. Cathy’s work collides imaginary forms with existing landscapes through the use of both architectural and botanical elements. Her compositions incorporate a hint of surrealism, as to alter presumed proportion, and a saturated colour palette to punctuate emotive mood.
