Over the past couple of years, I've had the great pleasure of writing a profile series called Inside the Artist's Studio focused on the practices of interdisciplinary artists, for
Art Practical. These artists have been generous enough to invite me into their studios and give hours of their time as I poke and prod into their lives and work. These sorts of interviews have been immeasurably fulfilling for me as it affords me the opportunity to see more than just what an artist makes but why, how and who is behind the work.
We also get to talk about all the other things that make up an artistic practice, from day jobs and families to the works that never make it to the gallery or that aren't art at all.
Matthew Gordon is a sheer force when it comes to prioritizing his art and writing practice in the face of day jobs and distractions of life.
Jackie Im curator-artist-writer-editor extraordinaire may singlehandedly recreate the art world.
And
Jaime Cortez whose commitment to non-profit arts funding is as inspiring as his art and writing practice.
