TAMING TECH, THE PODCAST EPISODE 5 – INTERVIEW WITH JENNA BURCHELL

Full Show notes https://taming.tech/5

In episode 5 we speak to Jenna Burchell  an award winning South African artist who fuses the digital with the natural world.

When we think of technology, art doesn’t ordinarily come to mind, which is one of the reasons why Jenna Burchell’s sculptures are extraordinary.

Jenna shares with us: 

how she works with technology to marry the tech with the organic

how the amalgamation of the organic and inorganic subverts expectation and takes on a transformative experience

her experience with the ghost in the machine

how including technology in her creations results in a long term relationship between creator and collector

how her work celebrates the joy of repair and rebuilding and how the process animates the artwork

We encourage you to listen to this episode if:

You are looking for inspiration on how you work with technology

You are looking for a way to rebuild after experiencing a fracture in your work or in your life

You are exploring ideas on how to use technology in a different way

You are interested in the behind the scenes process of creating art that reframes the narrative
