Architecture, Design & Photography Trent Bell

In Season 4 of "Architecture, Design & Photography," we are introducing a new show called "Building Perspectives." This new series will focus on conversations with architecture photographers in a Q&A format, providing an in-depth look at their creative processes, challenges, and inspirations. In this first episode, we sit down with Kyle Carrier, a video producer and architecture photographer based in southern Maine. Kyle shares his journey in the industry, his passion for visual storytelling, and his insights on creativity and art.

We have an incredible guest for our 100th episode. It is none other than John Bisbee. Artist and sculptor extraordinaire.

In this episode of the "Architecture, Design, and Photography" podcast, Trent and John Bisbee delve into the intricate nuances of artistic creation and the personal journey behind it. Trent, a photographer with a strong commercial background, and John, a sculptor renowned for his unique use of nails, explore the intersection of creativity and persistence. John shares the story of how he met Trent a decade ago and the memorable pitch he initially rejected, highlighting his commitment to maintaining the integrity of his work. Their conversation reveals the evolution of John's artistic process, his transition from sculpting to songwriting, and the deep-seated philosophies that drive his creations. The dialogue is rich with insights about the importance of staying true to one's artistic vision, the role of rejection in growth, and the visceral connection that powerful art can evoke.

As they reminisce about past collaborations and discuss current projects, John emphasizes the importance of simplicity and dedication in his work. His motto, "only nails, always different," encapsulates his commitment to exploring the endless possibilities within self-imposed creative limits. Trent reflects on his own journey, drawing parallels between his architectural photography and John's sculptural practices. The conversation also touches on broader themes such as the impact of social media on creativity, the importance of failing as a part of the creative process, and the distinction between art and craft. Together, Trent and John offer a profound exploration of what it means to be an artist, the importance of resilience, and the transformative power of art to shift perceptions and evoke emotion.
