    Laurie Frick: How Data Becomes Art and Why Surveillance Could Be Beautiful

    Artist Laurie Frick makes portraits without faces. Instead, she transforms personal data into tactile artworks made from wool felt, leather, and sandblasted glass. A former tech executive who spent 20 years in Silicon Valley, Frick has been tracking herself obsessively—sleep patterns, location data, heart rate—since the early 2000s. In this conversation, she shares her radical vision: that surveillance could become a tool for self-knowledge, what Google executives told her when she pitched them this idea, and why medieval Sienese art holds the key to understanding our data-saturated future.

    Art Basel Qatar: The Truth Behind the Hype with Tina Corinteli

    Art advisor Tina Corinteli joins Carrie from Doha to give us the unfiltered take on Art Basel's experimental new format. No traditional booths. Museum-style flow. All costs covered. Sounds dreamy, right? Tina breaks down what really happened: the stunning presentations (Sadie Coles!), the sales situation (complicated), and whether galleries would return if Basel wasn't footing the bill. Plus, she reveals what this fair was actually designed to do—and spoiler: it's not about moving inventory. Highlights include a never-before-seen Alex Katz selling for $3.6M, epic desert installations, and Tina's brutally honest quick-fire round where she calls it "glamorous" and "symbolic" in the same breath.

    Inside the Booming Collectibles Market with Kayleigh Davies | Sponsored by Auctionet

    Create your free Auctionet account and explore 80 action houses from your couch: https://auctionet.com/?utm_source=instagram&utm_medium=organic_social&utm_campaign=Seen What if the box of action figures in your parents' attic could fund a house deposit? In this episode of Behind the Seen, Carrie Scott sits down with Kayleigh Davies, a toy specialist with Auctionet with 15 years of experience in the auction world. Kayleigh stumbled into her dream career by accident—walking into a glowing auction house filled with toys and knowing instantly "this is where I belong." But this isn't just a conversation about nostalgia. It's about a fundamental shift in how we think about value. While the art world focuses on overlooked painters and undervalued movements, the collectibles market has quietly exploded. Pop culture departments that didn't exist at major auction houses a decade ago are now selling handwritten lyrics, concert memorabilia, and vintage toys for record-breaking prices. What was once dismissed as "just plastic" is now funding real estate purchases. Kayleigh reveals how childhood Transformers have funded house deposits, why the pop culture market exploded, and what you should check in your attic before it's too late. Plus: the surprising gender gap in toy collecting and the 1920s bangle that still haunts her. Thanks for listening to this episode of the Seen podcast. Liked what you heard?

    Rob Strati

    Artist Rob Strati drops antique plates onto rocks and transforms them into stunning art that explores memory, colonial history, and the power of repair. When his mother-in-law's cherished chinoiserie plate shattered, he saw opportunity instead of loss—extending the imagery beyond the fragments to create something profound. In this conversation, Rob reveals his mesmerizing process, why people cry when they see his work, and how breaking porcelain can be an act of dismantling hierarchy. His art speaks to our fragmented moment, proving that sometimes the most beautiful stories emerge from what's broken. Thanks for listening to this episode of the Seen podcast. Liked what you heard?

    Esther Kim Varet: From running galleries to running for Congress

    Learn more about Esther Kim Varet: https://www.estherkimvaret.com/ This week, Carrie chats with Esther Kim Varet—co-founder of Various Small Fires, the gallery with locations in LA, Seoul, and Dallas—to discuss her journey from opening a gallery at 24 (inspired by a chance $60,000 payday at an art fair) to running for Congress in Orange County. Yes, she's the real-life inspiration behind the gallery owner character in HBO's Girls. But this conversation goes far deeper than pop culture moments. Esther talks about building an empire in an industry not designed for someone who looks like her, the lessons she learned from art world legend Mary Boone, and why "fake it till you make it" actually works in contemporary art. Then we come to the pivot point: Why would someone at the top of the art world walk away to run for Congress? As the daughter of North Korean refugees who started with $400 and a shiitake mushroom farm in Texas, Esther explains her urgent mission to fight authoritarianism, protect free speech, and ensure her kids inherit a democracy worth living in. She's not just changing the art world anymore—she's fighting for the future. Thanks for listening to this episode of the Seen podcast. Liked what you heard?

    Wilma Woolf

    This week, Carrie Scott sits down with artist Wilma Woolf. Wilma is a Virtual Artist working in London. In 2020 she completed a Masters in Fine Art at Central Saint Martins, graduating with a Distinction. She has exhibited her work at The Tate Modern, V&A and at Richard Saltoun Gallery in Mayfair with a solo exhibition centred around her installation, Domestic. In 2022 Woolf was invited to the Houses of Parliament to display her work Domestic, which was then discussed by MP Rosie Duffiled in a House of Commons debate. She has recently been interviewed by Art Newspaper and displayed her work "I Collected You Carefully" at the Richard Saltoun Gallery alongside an artist talk chaired by Hettie Judah, art critic and guardian journalist. Her latest exhibition was at the V&A in April 2024 as part of the 'Feminist Futures' exhibition. Woolf's core concern is the extrapolation of political injustices told through data, collected testimonials and the communication of this through artistic means.Integral to the meaning of her work is the making process. Her works are often memorialistic in nature and are both labour and research intensive. Through this making process she fulfils a personal devotional need to pay tribute to people whose lives have been affected and interrupted by injustice. Woolf's work is noted for being repetitive, organised and often comprising of grids or grid like structures. It is multi-disciplinary in its approach, incorporating installations, sculptural and 2D work, through diverse materials such as concrete, photography, glass, light and ceramics.

    Richelle Rich

    This week, Carrie Scott interviews artist Richelle Rich. What does Margaret Thatcher have to do with Mr. Whippy ice cream? And why does it matter to contemporary art? Listen to this episode to find out. Working from her vine-covered studio in Santa Monica, Richelle is finally looking back at the Isle of Wight—the small island where she grew up. Her current work explores systems of power through unexpected objects: ice cream, chalk cliffs, and folklore. She's investigating the urban legend that Margaret Thatcher invented soft-serve ice cream as an entry point to the intersection of personal and political history. We talk about her decade traveling with an inflatable sex doll as her alter ego, creating a giant floral installation spelling "c**t" in the California desert, and why she prefers subversive ambiguity over overt political messaging—except when it comes to abortion rights. But this goes beyond art. We get honest about motherhood and creative practice—making art from dirty nappies during postpartum depression, raising teenage boys who understand privilege without guilt, and feeling like a wild horse being broken in even with help and privilege. We explore "escape velocity" from island culture, becoming more politically active in LA than she ever was in London, and how our generation of women is partnered with the first generation of men figuring out modern fatherhood with no roadmap.
