In today's episode of In Conversation With, we're chatting to Cassia Powell, a contemporary artist based in Victoria, BC. Focusing on the art of extended painting, Cassia aims to break the convention for how fine art is experienced and perceived, and actively engages in bridging the relationship between what is considered “highbrow” and “lowbrow” art.

We chatted to them about their first solo show, "to eat the flower from the root", how they dealt with some of their work being destroyed, and navigating the art world as a recent graduate.
