Episode 5: Pt. 1 - Christina P. Day


Listen Later

Hey Everyone! Thanks for not forgetting about us during our

hiatus. We had a busy month and we’ve got a bunch of episodes
coming up. Today we’ve got part 1 of my interview with Christina P.
Day.

I felt my chat with her was more of a learning experience, or a

class, in how to live like an artist. In talking with her it became
apparent that she's done a lot of self-reflection about her
identity as an artist and the work she creates. We talk about the
definition of Crafts, differences between Art and Design,
encouraging young artists, how grad school shapes an artist's
growth, and much more. There was so much more we broke it up into
two parts! 

*** Christina P. Day: Dead Ringers ending April 29th

at Philadelphia Sculpture Gym ***

Here are some links to the places mentioned during our

talk: 

Rair - a nonprofit organization that builds

awareness about sustainability issues through art and design.

Philadelphia Sculpture Gym - PSG

gallery, which is dedicated to showcasing sculpture in all of its
many forms, features monthly exhibitions and provides exhibition
opportunities for both emerging and established artists. (Taken
from their site.) 

The gallery is only one part of PSG. Here's the other

part: The Philadelphia Sculpture Gym is a community studio
that operates like a gym membership. A monthly membership grants
members access to a wood shop, metal shop, small metals shop,
forging area, and a mold making and casting area. We offer classes
in various processes from welding and woodworking...and everything
in between! (Also taken from their site.)

Education! University of the Arts

You say Cranberries, I say Cranbroids: Cranbrook

And the artist herself: Christina P. Day
