Embracing Curiosity & Personal Inquiry to Create Your Most Meaningful Work with Kaylan Buteyn
In today’s episode we chat with Kaylan Buteyn, visual artist & founder of the Artist/Mother podcast and Thrive Together network. We chat about art and motherhood, finding a sense of balance, and how you can strengthen your creative practice by allowing curiosity to guide your work. Here’s what we discuss:
1. The role of textiles in Kaylan’s work as a visual artist exploring legacies of care.
2. How Kaylan's experience as an artist and mother inspired her to launch the Artist/Mother podcast.
3. Why it’s valid (and sometimes necessary) to take a step back from your art practice after having children, and the importance of remembering that your art is a long-term practice. Do what you can with the time you have!
4. The power of unlearning beliefs that you were once taught and no longer serve you.
5. Allowing room for personal investigation, and how doing so can guide you to your most authentic and powerful work.
About Kaylan:
Kaylan Buteyn’s work investigates physical representations of generational care through paintings, quilts, domestic textiles, abstraction and collage. She has exhibited in galleries and community spaces internationally including the Ground Floor Gallery in Nashville, TN, Artlink in Fort Wayne, IN, Split Milk in Edinburgh, Scotland, among others. In 2019, as a social extension of her art practice, Kaylan founded the Artist/Mother Podcast, sharing interviews of working artists who are mothers. The podcast community has grown to a more inclusive state, and now exists as the Thrive Together Network, a community of female identifying, non-binary and trans artists that offers support and encouragement through exhibitions, retreats, a crit group program and more. In 2020 as a response to the global covid-19 pandemic, Kaylan co-founded Stay Home Gallery with Pam Taylor and the two took their virtual gallery physical when Kaylan offered her home and artist studio in rural Tennessee as a brick and mortar gallery and artist residency space. Kaylan holds an MFA from the New Hampshire Institute of Art. She now lives with her partner and their 3 children in Fort Wayne, IN.
