Episode 8: Ilana Yacine Harris-Babou 

Today on Field Pod, Jacob Rhodes sits down with the artist Ilana Yacine Harris-Babou. They talk about growing up in Brooklyn, with a multi generational house of black women, play and its relationship to work, lack and pleasure, the Loren Hill syndrome, Audre Lorde’s “The Use of the Erotic”, finally getting comfortable in your studio, showing old work in a new context, and many other concepts. Join Ilana and Jacob today as they discuss all these questions and topics to learn more about this fascinating artist.
