March 28th, 2017     by Julia De Laurentiis Johnson     Issue 33: Issue 33: The Independence Survival Guide     Comments

A new ep. of Shameless Talks is here! Hosted by our arts editor, Julia De Laurentiis Johnson, this podcast is an accessory to our print issues and will bring you even more of the kind of smart & fierce discussion you’ve come to expect from the pages of Shameless.

In this episode, we’re talking about Independence! You’ll hear from Vivek Shraya, a multi-disciplinary artist, writer and musician, talk about trying out different methods to fine-tune her art, what working with young artists has taught her and how coming out as trans has made her challenge some old assumptions; we speak with Sofy Mesa, a member of feminist art collective Bonerkill, about interactive art shows, the strength of a female-identified collective and about who’s ‘allowed’ to be an artist and why; and we speak with Tau Lewis, a self-taught sculptor who explores Black identity politics and African diaspora in her work and how she finds a sense of independence in making art.

We’re also on iTunes! Please subscribe. And tell us how we’re doing! You can get us on Twitter @shamelessmag or find Julia @juliadelj or at juliadelj@shamelessmag.com. Happy listening!

Transcript to come.
