In this episode, host Nathaniel August Williams sits down with internationally recognized artist Robin F Williams to dive into:

• The challenges of being a figurative painter in today’s art world
• Gender, identity, and the body in contemporary painting
• The evolution of Robin’s career from childhood inspirations to major museum collections
• The intersection of AI, art, and consciousness — will artificial intelligence be a monster, an assistant, or something in between?
• How artists can orient themselves toward reciprocity instead of extraction

Robin’s work has been shown in major galleries and museums worldwide, including the Brooklyn Museum, ICA Miami, and Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. This conversation blends art history, philosophy, humor, and sibling banter into a wide-ranging exploration of creativity and the future of consciousness.
