- Arts
Shepherd Manyika is based in South East London and his work ranges from video to sculpture to performance and everything in-between. He has also worked in arts education for a long time and his projects tend to have a big emphasis on community.
We talk about Shepherd's progression as an artist and how music and art were something he kept separate, but are now part of the same practice. We talk about his Sound Opus series, which feature a sound system he built using and old supermarket trolley and also his collaborations with the 22A Records camp.
We also touch on our time working together at the South London Gallery and how lockdown may begin to erode the exclusivity of the gallery industry.
