A walk through The Forest with Natalya Hughes and Grant Stevens
Join artists Natalya Hughes and Grant Stevens as they discuss Grant’s new exhibition The Forest which launches online and in the gallery 25 June. Natalya and Grant have been close friends and colleagues for 20 years. Since studying together at QUT in the early 2000s, they have co-edited publications, exhibited together, and more recently, collaborated in academic contexts. They have spent many years discussing art and many other unrelated topics.
Listen to podcast
In this podcast, Natalya asks Grant the hard questions – from “how do you use a computer in your art” (a perennial question asked by the public at their artist talks), to why “working with assets” is a vital part of Grant’s practice – and not an investment strategy!
