December 21, 2023 Episode 3 - Samar Hejazi
In this third episode, I take a walk with Samar Hejazi, whose embroidery and textile practice is a process of making and unmaking, weaving, and unweaving as she puts together and pulls apart traditional threads as an exploration of change and transformation, and everything from her identity as a Palestinian-Canadian artist to her mentality and worldview.

Samar is both clear and inquisitive in how they make sense of and navigate their relationships to land, friendship, universal guidance, and artistic practice and leads us to understand how to draw boundaries, hold space, and create rituals to protect that which matters to us. Here is the episode for the seventh issue, Conversations with the Past, available to read at https://newest.co/

February 22, 2023 Episode 2 - Queen Kukoyi
In this second episode of Artist Care, host Hima Batavia takes a walk with Queen Kukoyi, whose Afrofuturist practice weaves threads and mediums together to connect the ancestral, spiritual, scientific and psychological into new frames of being and seeing. Ritual is foundational to their work, bringing in the Earth as a collaborator in the creative process. They are refreshingly honest about their lived experiences, balancing the humor with the real, leading us to understand how they must care for themselves to create what they create.

November 06, 2022 Episode 1 - Alyssa Alikpala
In this first episode of Artist Care, host Hima Batavia takes a walk with Alyssa Alikpala, whose ephemeral land-based sculptural work is nothing short of sublime. Her art is a ceremony and meditation on impermanence that leaves you in a more intimate conversation with the strange beauty of our human condition. She is soft and thoughtful, bringing as much care to her work as she does in the words she chooses to use and share. This interview is part of our fifth issue, Ceremonial Deaths, available to read at https://newest.co/
