Listen Later

Simon Grant is a curator, strategist and creative explorer working across contemporary art curation, street-level culture and large-scale public art. As Founding Director of Wonderwalls, his practice is driven by a desire to build the environments that shape creative movements. He connects subcultural energy with the strategy, structure and operational support needed to help street art ecosystems grow without compromise.

On this episode, we dive into:

  • How artists can position themselves with more confidence

  • Why branding is more than just a visual identity

  • what artists need beyond talent to build a lasting creative career

  • How to find your creative “thing” without feeling trapped by it

  • Why audacity matters when carving your own path

  • How street art evolved from subculture into industry

  • What curators actually do beyond choosing artists

  • How culture, place and community shape public art

And so much more.
