// Autumn update: new episodes coming soonish! //
Xenia Ramm, a Danish artist educated at The Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki, interviews creative colleagues in different locations such as galleries, a darkroom or an old water reservoir. We talk about all kinds of creative and cultural work, from conceptual thinking to practical techniques and industry-specific insights. We bring the listeners with us into the space, via ambient sound recordings and verbal descriptions of the places we are in and the artworks we are talking about. Every episode features different guests and topics, with terms and technical details explained in a way that all conversations can be enjoyed by fellow artisans or without previous knowledge on the subject.

I visit the Bachelor's Degree Show in The Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki, to talk to Sara Rantanen about her sculptural installation that she activates with performances. She tells about self-discoveries in her recent transition from painting to performance art, using her body as a research tool, and we discuss how a change in medium can affect the way you approach not only your work but also yourself. Sara explains how it feels to put herself on display in the gallery, and we talk about vulnerability and trust in the relationship between performer and spectator. We discuss practical and emotional strategies in embodied practice, and reflect on the meditative aspects of endurance. W also talk about our new school building, and how we each have used artistic methods to respond to the architecture and deal with our frustration about it.
