Young at Art Podcast
Cover art drawn by Beatrice Ross
In the summer of 2022, I launched Young at Art, my arts and culture podcast that puts you in-touch with established names and rising stars from the worlds of art, fashion and interior design who are helping establish a new era of art and redefining what it means to be a tastemaker today. Showcasing a range of voices from different backgrounds and areas of the worlds of art, fashion and design, it has been my passion project and I’ve taken on the roles of host, writer, producer, and editor to create the show that you can listen to on a multitude of streaming platforms anywhere in the world.
Young at Art speaks to both established names and emerging talent, and it features both those who are shaking up the art world, using their work to address issues in the art and design world, and inspiring tastemakers who’s career journey and design style is an inspiration to us all. I hope that anyone who listens to Young at Art will learn something about the world of art and design, perhaps picking up a tip from a design master or thinking about a bigger issue in art more deeply. Many different topics and areas of the worlds of art, fashion and design are discussed on Young at Art, and I hope there is something for everyone to enjoy or to spark a cultural conversation.
Young at Art is a celebration of the art and design world today; it shows what’s happening now in design and what has happened before. I believe that to truly understand the art world today you must first grasp what came before and attempt to understand the history of a subject which continues to fascinate and inspire all facets of humanity.
