Artist & Place is a bi-weekly podcast with artist, Kim Carlino, interviewing artists to uncover the connection between place, landscape and the creative process. This is a podcast that goes beyond the work we make to get to the why behind it and what has brought us to that why, and how can a deeper look at our places of origin and memories of place affect our work. These conversations meander and explore many territories that will illuminate and inspire.

Adam O’Day - Looking Outward & Looking Inward
Episode 28 with Boston-based artist Adam O’Day. Adam paints across genres and scales up to building sized murals all across the region! He shows his work widely and in 2014 his painting was chosen for the “portrait of a city” competition in Boston! We recorded this episode from his studio in an old shoe factory in Abington, Massachusetts, and we cover its potential haunting, his move from naval engineer to full time artist, the role of collaboration, where his interest in shanty vernacular comes from as well as talk about the relationship between his painting and music. We talk about Metal Aesthetic, the weird and inclusive family of metal heads and his band MOLLUSK… a doom/sludge metal band. We reminisce about both spending our formative years growing up in Michigan and local midwestern nostalgia as well as the practice of what it takes to turn a representational view into a real place and a finished painting. Loved this conversation and can’t wait for you to hear! As always, please go give Adam O’Day a follow on Instagram, find out when his next concert will be and check out the show notes for a ton of links.

Kirstin Lamb - Retranslation, Getting Lost & Finding the Way
Episode 26 with Rhode Island based painter, Kirstin Lamb. We talk with Kirstin about her WOODS series in which we explore the layers of retranslation, interconnection and visual research to begin to know a place and capture the fleetingness of place. Kirstin studied painting at the Rhode Island School of Design, graduating with an MFA in 2005, and she received her AB in Visual Art and Literatures in English from Brown University in 2001. Kirstin’s work has been shown in venues across the country, recently showing with Gallery Naga in Boston, MA, Geary in Millerton, NY, Jennifer Terzian Gallery in Litchfield, CT, Cade Tompkins Projects in Providence, RI, the Spring Break Art Fair in NY, the Wassaic Project in Amenia, NY, the Fruitlands Museum in Harvard, MA and Providence College Galleries in Providence, RI, among others. She has attended numerous residencies such as the Wassaic Project, and the Sam and Adele Golden Foundation. To name just a few! She is also represented by Gallery Naga in Boston, MA.
This conversation had so many great nuggets to book mark and go back to! We talk about the hierarchy of genres, genre bending, painting as ecstatic 80s dance party, salon walls, hex signs, falling in love with kunstkamer, thinking in multiples, ghost forests, and the love of quirky taxonomies. Follow Kirstin Lamb on social media for more information about her upcoming solo show at the Jennifer Terzian Gallery in Litchfield Connecticut opening April 27th!

Customer Reviews
studio companion
I love how the host is so curious about the many types of places—from deserts to cities to rural areas—that can nourish and support artistic production. This is a breath of fresh air. Love the thoughtful conversations. Some of my faves this far include Tim McFarlane, Maya Erdelyi, and Arden Bendler Browning. Thanks Kim and artists for this great studio and road trip companion!
Really authentic conversation
I had a chance to listen to the podcast with Andrae Green and was struck by the genuineness of the conversation, the non-linear flow with beautifully meandering progressions, the thoughtful questions asked, the ground covered. As an artist, I could relate to so much of the experience being shared and it helped identify some feelings I’ve had about “loss of mental space” that I never had the words for until listening to this podcast. Can’t wait to listen to the rest of the series!
True stories of real artists!
I just listened to the episode w Karen Snouffer snd I loved it. I know both Kim and Karen, but neither super well and this podcast was entertaining and very validating as an abstract artist. Both women are so intelligent and well spoken, no art speak!! And Kim’s questions are insightful and original. For anyone wanting to know how artists really think and feel, beyond the hype, here it is.
