Ep 23: Art & Life: Balancing Creativity and Challenges with Phoebe Hughes
In this episode of Art Affects, artist Phoebe Hughes joins the conversation to reflect on her journey into a full-time artistic practice, shaped deeply by her Bermudian heritage, family roots, and lived experience.
Phoebe speaks candidly about what it means to choose art not just as a passion, but as a way of life, navigating uncertainty, financial realities, and the emotional labour that comes with creative work. She shares how personal history and cultural memory inform her practice, and why staying connected to self, family, and community is essential to sustaining a creative life.
This episode is an honest and grounding reflection on resilience, mental wellbeing, and the courage it takes to keep creating, even when the path isn’t linear or secure.

Phoebe’s artistic journey and Bermudian heritage
How personal history shapes creative practice
The realities of being a full-time artist
Financial sustainability and honesty in the art world
Mental health, resilience, and self-trust
