The Open Call Podcast, hosted by Anne Stagg and Laura Tanner, features conversations with contemporary artists about their work. 

In this episode of The Open Call Podcast, we talked with Liz Cohen who lives and works in Phoenix, Arizona where she is an Associate Professor at Arizona State University. Liz is an multidisciplinary artist who uses performative photography, sculpture, weaving, ceramics, and other materials to upend stereotypes and present new perspectives. Her work brings together themes of love, identity, politics, and belonging and challenges social stereotypes. Liz's projects often take years to complete.  Check out this episode to learn more about her art, working process, and inspirations.

Also be sure to visit out our Instagram -- @the_open_call_podcast -- where we share images of the artwork that we talk about on the podcast. New episodes of The Open Call are released every 2 weeks so be sure to check back to discover new artists and learn more about their practice.
