GUEST: Beth Jackson art curator, writer and creative
In this episode Beth Jackson, from the Artfully consultancy in Brisbane talks about art practice as a form of inquiry which can make an important contribution to stimulating progressive conversations, helping people express their personal experiences of change and transition, process their past - and enable them to imagine and re-imagine their futures. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, can the undervalued resource of art practice help us make sense of where the pandemic has taken us – and where we want to go as a society after the virus?
