Description

Bridget is a maker and researcher who uses ideas around repair to reanimate discarded objects and to tell new stories about our relationship to everyday things. In this conversation we talk about where our interests in object histories and museums converge and about how sharing our research interests in various ways fuels our ongoing curiosity about people and the things they value. This podcast is part of my Cultures of Care project which is a research and making project looking at how artist practice can contribute to a culture of care. I am interested in how Bridget’s work fits into this overall theme of care and how we as artists can express, give and accept care of our own work too.  Read more https://ruthsinger.com/2023/12/13/making-meaning-podcast-episode-36-with-bridget-harvey/  Find Your Focus course, Membership and Mentoring are all here: https://ruthsinger.podia.com/ Support the podcast with a donation or subscription ruthsinger.com/podcast-fundraiser Keep in touch by joining my email list ruthsinger.com/email Get a copy of Making Meaning Journal ruthsinger.com/journal Find more episodes at ruthsinger.com/podcast

Making Meaning is a podcast exploring the meaning behind what we make. Artist Ruth Singer talks to creative people about why they make and create. Ruth loves finding out how artists, writers, coaches, researchers and others use challenging and complex stories within their work. She is interested in what matters to them and why they choose to create what they do. Ruth Singer has been making textile art professionally for 16 years and before that worked in the museum sector and has wide ranging interests in all kinds of creative practice. Words are really important to her; she writes books, shares a lot of her work online and loves talking about creative practice to other people who get it. Ruth also works as a mentor to artists and creative businesses and is always learning about what drives creative people to make interesting and complex things.
