EP69 with Ngaio Parr on Making Nice


Listen Later

In this episode, we spoke with Ngaio Parr,
We are out and visiting people’s home/studios again, and this time we sit down with the versatile Ngaio Parr, Illustrator, Multidisciplinary Designer, Curator, Teacher and Founder of MakeNice.
Thanks again to Streamtime, who without their support, and our new travelling kit, we couldn’t do this.
Ngaio (you say it Nigh-Oh) works with a whole range of clients such as The New York Times, Thames & Hudson and Redbull but she’s probably best known for MakeNice, a conference/platform/community that seeks to showcase women in design and the issues they face.
This notoriety brings its own issues and we discuss what it means to be known for a movement and how to make sure you are looking after yourself, as well as the community.
We also talk about some of Ngaio’s work, such as the transparent KKK outfit and how that came about. What it’s like working from a home studio and how she keeps herself motivated.
