Want to hear how real artists actually make it work? noseyAF skips the glossy bios and gets into the messy, human, creative parts of building a life in the arts, and using that life to change the world. Hosted by artist, filmmaker, and professionally nosey person Stephanie Graham, each episode goes deep with working artists, filmmakers, organizers, and culture-shifters about what's actually behind their work: the decisions, the doubts, the money stuff, the pivots, and the "how do you keep going?" moments. No hustle propaganda. No gatekeeping. No pretending it's easy. If you love peeking behind the curtain, noseyAF gives you the honest, energizing conversation you didn't know you needed.

    Introducing: The Art Biz | Why Titling Your Artwork Matters

    Introducing: The Art Biz with Alison Stanfield Today's feed drop comes from a podcast that has had a meaningful impact on how I think about building a sustainable art practice: The Art Biz with Alison Stanfield. If you've ever struggled to title your artwork—or wondered whether titles matter at all—this conversation is for you. In this episode, Alison Stanfield sits down with artist, writer, and educator Fran Gardner to explore why titling artwork is much more than an administrative task. Together they discuss how titles help artists understand their own work, deepen their connection to the creative process, and communicate more effectively with viewers. One idea that stayed with me is Fran's belief that a title is the first step toward a work's independence. Long after a piece leaves the studio, its title continues to carry meaning, offering viewers a way into the work when the artist isn't there to explain it. As someone who loves titles and thinks of them as containers that give shape to ideas, I knew I had to share this conversation with the NoseyAF community. In this episode:Why titling artwork is a creative practice, not an afterthoughtHow titles help artists better understand their own workThe relationship between writing and visual artDeveloping a personal process for naming artworkWhy artists should resist outsourcing titles to AI or social mediaThe role titles play in communication, marketing, and audience connectionHow thoughtful titling can strengthen an artist's professional practice Notable Quotes"A title is the first step toward your artwork's independence.""The writing is your studio work.""Your artwork is going to have a life beyond you."About Alyson StanfieldAlyson Stanfield has spent more than two decades helping artists build sustainable, professional creative careers.

Chicago-based painter Sheri Rush has been making art since childhood, and she brings a rare honesty to this conversation.

Join the noseyAF Dispatch 📬 At the end of the month, your inbox gets a little happier — all the month's noseyAF episodes sent straight to you. → Subscribe to the noseyAF Dispatch This conversation was recorded Live at Lumpen Radio on Saturday May 9th, 2026 Ep #113: Doing Both: Art, Film, and Building Worlds with Aaliyah Shae Summary This episode is for everyone who's ever looked at a film set and wondered who put that there, and why it matters. Aaliyah Shae is a Chicago-based production designer, photographer, and painter whose work is all about building worlds that feel lived in and deeply human. We talk about production design, what it actually means to create a "false reality" on screen, and how the small details, a hair tie on a nightstand, height markers on a door frame, are what make a story real. We also dig into Aaliyah's community work with the People's Panther Party, a Pilsen-based mutual aid organization she helped launch just before Halloween, and what it looks like when art and activism melt into one. Chapters 00:00 — Introduction to the Episode 00:36 — Exploring Design and Creativity 20:33 — The Art of Storytelling Through Design 33:55 — Community Engagement and Activism 53:16 — People's Panther Party Updates & Free People's Press Launch What We Talk About How Aaliyah figured out she could do both : design and film and why "pick a lane" is not the only way to build a creative career What production design actually is and why every single thing on a film set has been accounted for (yes, even the books on the shelf — don't judge the books) "Life layers" — the small details that make a set feel real — hair ties, kids' drawings on the fridge, height markers on door frames How travel sparked her design eye — from a high school architecture program in Kentucky to France and Barcelona with her French class The film Portrait of a Lady on Fire — Aaliyah's go-to visual inspiration and why she says just Google the images Working in indie film vs. studio projects — and why she encourages every filmmaker to just write something and design the heck out of a room How the People's Panther Party got started — collective exhaustion, a plane ride back to Chicago the day before Halloween, and the realization that some kids were going to sit inside while everyone else trick-or-treated What they've done in just a few months — reverse candy drive, holiday grocery deliveries to 30 families, a bi-weekly grocery program, a grant win, and now the launch of Free People's Press, a quarterly community newspaper Her advice for anyone who wants to start showing up for their community — it starts with listening, not with having it all figured out Pilsen as a neighborhood — why she loves it and what it gets right about community The crossover between film and activism — and how craft nights became a sneaky good way to build community Things We Mentioned People's Panther Party — Pilsen-based mutual aid organization Free People's Press — their new quarterly community newspaper, available at Foxglove Coffee in Pilsen Foxglove Coffee — woman-owned coffee shop in Pilsen Aaliyah Shae's Website Portrait of a Lady on Fire — French queer period film, Palme d'Or winner at Cannes; Aaliyah's visual inspo pick CUSP — Chicago United Solidarity Project — organization that helped People's Panther Party secure a grant Pilsen Arts & Community House — one of the few free creative spaces in Chicago Aaliyah mentions Liberate Your Business — book by Becky Mollenkamp All about... Aaliyah Shae You're gonna love Aaliyah Shae — she's a world-builder in the truest sense. A Chicago-based production designer, set decorator, photographer, and painter, Aaliyah creates spaces on screen that feel like real people actually live in them. She also co-founded the People's Panther Party, a Pilsen-based mutual aid org doing bi-weekly grocery deliveries, community events, and now a neighborhood newspaper — all born out of the belief that you don't have to be a professional organizer to show up for your community. She started making outfits out of paper for her little brother. She hasn't really stopped creating since.

Eric is a printmaker, designer, publisher, and co-founder of Love Fridge Chicago, and he brings real clarity to what mutual aid actually means — and what it doesn't. We dig into how it differs from charity, why reciprocity is the whole point, and how his community fridge network Love Fridge Chicago puts those values into practice across the city. Plus we get into his art, why print is a political act, and why he believes the strongest groups — not individuals — survive. What We Talk About What mutual aid actually is and what it's NOT (hint: posting a Venmo link is probably just fundraising)Reciprocity as the heart of real community care, and why transparency mattersHow Love Fridge Chicago works, what it takes to maintain a fridge site, and why community buy-in is everythingThe difference between mutual aid and charity — and why Love Fridge isn't a nonprofitHorizontality, anarchist philosophy, and why Eric believes no one should be a billionairePhotographing people receiving food and why that's straight-up otheringPrintmaking as a democratic and political act — especially as a Black man in AmericaFlatlands Press and why getting ideas into physical multiples mattersThat time a yoga studio started leaving flyers at a fridge site 🙄 Things We Mentioned Love Fridge ChicagoFlatlands PressMutual Aid by Dean Spade (affiliate link)Artist Admin Hour (Stephanie's sponsor shoutout)Tiger Strikes Asteroid Chicago (where Eric had a exhibition)The Joan Flasch Artist Book Collection Chapters: 00:00 - Introduction to Eric Von Haynes and Love Fridge02:21 - The Power of Mutual Aid20:29 - Exploring Mutual Aid and Community Support29:58 - The Importance of Community Engagement in Resource Distribution38:26 - Exploring the Differences Between Mutual Aid and Charity49:50 - Creating Diverse Spaces for Black Voices All about...

He's also the president of the Chicago Printers Guild and the founder of Flatlands Press, where he creates and publishes artist books and printed matter for artists he believes should exist in the world. His work is rooted in anarchist philosophy, horizontality, and a deep belief that the strongest groups survive not the strongest individuals.

    31 Days of Black Business — A New noseyAF Series

    This episode is a quick update about what’s coming next for noseyAF. In August, I’m launching a new series called 31 Days of Black Business — 31 conversations with Black business owners throughout Black Business Month. The idea came after hearing about the month from Denzell Turner of the Black Fridays podcast and getting inspired to try an everyday podcast challenge. Throughout August, I’ll be talking with Black business owners about how their businesses got started, what they do, and how we can support them. If you’re a Black business owner (or know one), applications to be part of the series are open through April 30. In the meantime, the feed may look a little different while I work on recording and producing the series. Expect a few solo episodes and occasional feed drops while I get everything ready. Thanks for listening, and I can’t wait to share this series with you.

I still can't believe it. None of this happens without you, so thank you for being nosey right along with me all season long. I am so grateful. In this episode, I sit down with Ann Rosen, a Brooklyn-based portrait photographer and activist whose decades-long practice sits at the intersection of art, social justice, and human dignity. We talk about her evolution from abstract portraiture to her current project On Being Seen — an ongoing photography and writing workshop series with women in New York City shelters and transitional housing programs. Anne opens up about her own personal struggles, including surviving addiction and emotional trauma, and how those experiences shaped her deep empathy for the women she photographs. If you've ever wondered how art can truly serve a community — and what it means to really see someone — this one's for you. Topics discussed: Ann's artistic journey from abstract photography to intimate portrait work, including her In the Presence of Family series documenting diverse NYC families at street fairsThe On Being Seen project — photographing and collecting the stories of women in NYC shelters, and how the diptych format combines portraits with the subjects' own handwritingAnn's personal history with addiction and trauma, and how it informs her empathy-driven approach to social justice photographyThe ethics and logistics of photographing vulnerable populations — model releases, privacy, and consentWhat photography can do that other forms of activism can't, and advice for photographers wanting to do community-centered work Chapters: • 00:24 - End of an Era: Season Finale • 01:26 - The Journey of Ann Rosen: From Painting to Photography • 15:40 - Empathy Through Photography: A New Perspective • 28:33 - Understanding Homelessness and Resilience • 37:51 - The Journey of Recovery and Art • 45:50 - The Importance of Community and Neighborly Relations All About Ann: Ann Rosen (b.

"Photography is a universal language. You don't need to know English or any other language." "I realized I was giving to others what I had experienced the joy of gaining after a traumatic lifestyle." "Nobody wants to be sitting on the street. But the gestalt of seeing a person who is homeless — they're going to harm me? No, they're not going to harm me."
