What does it really mean to be an artist? What gives an artist meaning and purpose? How do we strengthen our artistic muscle?
Award-winning actress, filmmaker, and Raindance MA graduate and mentor, Louise Salter is hosting an original podcast series called Slowcooked which explores what it means to be an artist. Through philosophical and open questions, Louise holds the space for deeper conversations with renowned filmmakers, musicians, poets, architects and storytellers from various art forms around the world.
Slowcooked comes from an appreciation of the artistic process. Louise believes that “great stories are well-developed stories” and that pretty much sums up the Slowcooked ethos.
Each episode of the eight-part podcast series will be released every Monday starting Monday 26th October to brighten up your week and help to align you with your creative self, starting with Jazz Guitarist Shirley Tetteh and Architect and Leader of the design team of The Eden Project David Kirkland.
