It has been said that the enemy of art is the absence of limitations… but when do those limitations begin to encroach on the feasibility of making a career from art?

In this episode we hear from a broad range of artists worldwide on their interpretation on the subject of 'Restriction in Art'. What it's like to exist as an artist under restrictive circumstances, how what appears on the surface as a restriction is actually part of their craft, the challenges they overcome to create their work and how it inspires and shapes their art.
