    Building Inclusive Cultural Spaces with Dhikshana Turakhia Pering Head of Creative Programmes at London Museum

    Ceri speaks with Dhikshana Turakhia Pering, who has over 18 years of experience in museums, galleries and the wider cultural and creative world. As Head of Creative Programmes at London Museum, Dhikshana talks to Ceri about her journey from Science Museum explainer to cultural leader and reveals how her neurodiversity shaped her approach to leadership. She discusses the importance of joy and hope in creative programming, authentic leadership and making culture accessible to all. Throughout the episode, it is clear that Dhikshana’s mission is closely aligned with her own experiences and upbringing, giving her authentic passion in everything she does. KEY TAKEAWAYS Dhikshana manages her neurodiversity through good preparation, practising presentations three times, detailed scripting, and developing organisational systems that help her lead effectively while maintaining high standards Throughout her career, Dhikshana has developed programming based on starting from a place of empathy and respect, actively listening to communities, and ensuring representation becomes embedded in institutional structures Her leadership style evolved from recognising that being authentic means maintaining consistency across all interactions while learning to set boundaries between her professional and personal life She created the "triangle model" framework at London Museum, focusing on intellectual depth, lived experience, and universal themes to build strong creative programmes that resonate with diverse audiences Her involvement with Museum Detox has shown her the vital importance of professional networks in providing support, solidarity, and advocacy for diversity in cultural institutions Dhikshana's career transitions were guided by listening to her gut instinct while building support systems that allowed her to make bold moves when necessary At London Museum, she combines programming that sparks joy and hope while addressing serious social issues and civic action, drawing from her personal experiences growing up in Camden Her approach to team leadership focuses on creating psychological safety while maintaining clear structures, drawing from both positive and challenging experiences throughout her career journey BEST MOMENTS "If you can hold the attention of 14 year old boys while you're on stage delivering a show about digestion, where you're talking about poo, like you can pretty much hold the attention of anyone." "I'm glad we're in a world now where 12 year old me right now somewhere would find out they were dyslexic and be like, cool. Like, what do I need? How do I do it?" "I was told I would never be a leader because I smile too much...The smile is a big thing. It makes people feel welcome and comfortable with me. And then they tell me lots of stuff that's really helpful." "Being your authentic self means being genuine to everyone around you...They know, they meet you, they hear you, they hear what you're interested in and how you're going to do this." "The way I am, my empathy, the way I love chatting to people, the way that I can listen to someone and then retain loads of information is really important."   EPISODE RESOURCES Guest Resources: https://www.londonmuseum.org.uk/ https://uk.linkedin.com/in/dtpering PODCAST HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.

    Artist Curator Gavin Wade: How Eastside Projects is Changing Birmingham's Art Scene

    Ceri interviews Gavin Wade, the visionary artist curator behind Eastside Projects and Senior Research Fellow at Birmingham City University. From his early love of comics to founding one of the UK's most innovative art spaces, Gavin talks to Ceri about transforming the art world through collaborative practices. His story of creating a new kind of gallery space, winning a £120 million market redevelopment project, and maintaining artistic integrity while pushing boundaries is both inspiring and practical for anyone interested in making their creative mark. KEY TAKEAWAYS Gavin's approach to artist collaboration shows how repeated engagements over time create deeper, more meaningful projects - rather than rushing one off exhibitions, he builds lasting relationships that allow ideas to naturally evolve into innovative work. Through establishing Eastside Projects, Gavin demonstrated how to create a new kind of art space by selectively adopting elements from commercial galleries, museums and artist run spaces while rejecting conventional limitations. His early immersion in comics and DIY culture shaped his understanding of self publishing and community building, providing foundational principles that continue to influence his approach to art making and curation. Gavin's success with Eastside Projects stems from his ability to balance ambitious international programming with local artist development, he recognised that both elements are essential for meaningful impact. His revolutionary perspective on gallery spaces rejects the notion of neutral containers, instead treating them as living artworks that continuously evolve through each exhibition and intervention. Gavin built his confidence in the art world through consistent action. Each successfully organised show and new connection strengthened his position and opened up fresh opportunities. His involvement in the Smithfield Market project demonstrates how artists can meaningfully influence city development when they're involved in early planning stages rather than being brought in as an afterthought. Gavin maintains creative sustainability through clear boundaries - implementing regular working hours, extending installation periods, and prioritising family time, proving that balance enhances rather than diminishes artistic output. BEST MOMENTS "As soon as I was on my degree, I just thought, well, I'm an artist, I might not be as good yet, but I'm trying." "There is no such thing as an individual artwork. There is always a relationship between the artwork and its environment and other artworks and other things that have appeared in that space in the past or will appear in the future." "I didn't even know what a sculptor was particularly at that point. There was a little bit of modelling, like clay modelling and stuff, which felt a little bit boring, like I could do it, but it wasn't that exciting." "The art world is about supporting artists and careers and trying to come up with ideas, but to do it, it needs to reinforce societal status quos that are very aristocratic."

    Technology in Art: Rafael Lozano-Hemmer on Large Scale Interactive Installations

    Technology meets art as Ceri is joined by Mexican-Canadian media artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, whose works are in collections worldwide such as MoMA, Guggenheim, TATE, Reina Sofía, and Hirshhorn. He shares his journey from nightclub owner's son to internationally acclaimed artist and how it shaped his unique approach to creating participatory experiences. From transforming the US-Mexico border to making climate change audible through 481 speakers, Rafael gives his thoughts about managing ADHD, building a successful studio, and the delicate balance of working with major brands while maintaining artistic integrity. KEY TAKEAWAYS Early exposure to nightclub culture and theatrical environments influenced Rafael's approach to creating participatory art installations that come alive only when people engage with them. The democratisation of technology has transformed media art from being institution dependent to being more accessible, leading to an explosion of digital creation worldwide. Managing ADHD has been both a challenge and an asset for Rafael; he credits his condition for helping him work under pressure and maintain the necessary denial to tackle seemingly impossible projects. The artist's studio operates like a theatrical production, with Rafael as director rather than a solitary creator, involving specialists from 10 different countries. Environmental consciousness has become central to his practice, including scientific collaboration to minimise the impact on migratory birds and transition to more sustainable technologies. Rafael uses three key filters for project selection: intellectual/philosophical interest, time investment required, and economics, maintaining about 20% of work as non-profit. The relationship between art and corporate sponsorship requires careful navigation to maintain artistic legitimacy while ensuring financial sustainability. Art institutions face a tension between meaningful engagement with digital art and the temptation to use technology merely for spectacle and attendance numbers. BEST MOMENTS  "My talent is more in getting teams together. And there is a name for this, it's like a theatrical director... there's still a vision, it's the director's vision, that is followed." "Ultimately what I'm interested in art is in creating a good party, it is only when people come in that the party really begins, it really is dependent on participation." "I got off of Ritalin so that I could continue a life of denial because it's the only way to lie to yourself that these things can actually be accomplished." "I am not interested in growth. I want de-growth...I don't want to become a massive company, but what I do want is not to grow in personnel or space. I want to grow in time." "The genius artist who did something and then out of this one idea created a career doesn't exist. It's the perseverance." "You'll never be satisfied. You'll always think that the next artwork is better than anything you've done in the past."

    Why Art Needs Enthusiasm and How to Represent Artists in 2024 with Marine Tanguy

    Ceri is joined by Marine Tanguy, the pioneering founder of MTArt Agency. From managing a gallery at 21 to founding the art world's first talent agency at 25, Marine shares her journey of revolutionising how artists are represented and supported. Ceri and Marine talk about building resilience, visual literacy, and creating new opportunities for artists. Marine also opens up about overcoming personal challenges, including a public hate campaign while pregnant, and shares her innovative approach to artist representation. KEY TAKEAWAYS Marine built MTArt Agency on a philosophical foundation first, establishing clear manifestos about the future relationship with the arts and the alignment of medium and concept before focusing on business applications At 25, Marine created a new business model in the art world by shifting focus from gallery spaces to a service based agency, enabling broader opportunities for artists beyond traditional art sales Marine's experience of managing a hate campaign while pregnant led her to find strength in ballet, demonstrating how physical practice can help manage the mental challenges of leadership Coming from a teaching family background, Marine approached her financial education systematically, surrounding herself with knowledgeable investors who could contribute expertise beyond just funding Marine's approach to talent spotting comes from genuine enthusiasm - she describes herself as someone who rushes back to the office excited to champion new artists she's discovered and thinks that much of the art world today is lacking this type of enthusiasm. As one of the first B Corp certified companies in the art world, Marine used this framework to create measurable accountability in an industry that traditionally lacks formal regulation. Despite managing 50 artists and over 300 projects, Marine maintains a "log in, log out" approach to social media. Marine's company has grown to a £35 million valuation by creating opportunities across multiple sectors from public art to brand partnerships, whilst many more traditional galleries are struggling in the current market. BEST MOMENTS "We are in the art world where being enthusiastic is something that's actually quite rare. It's seen as either quite young or naive or too keen to a degree. But I love my enthusiasm." "The traditional way is really being challenged as we speak." "I haven't studied finance, but I was aware it was something that therefore I was not knowledgeable in, so I made a point of becoming knowledgeable in it." "I think realistically with talent, it's really a balance of hard work, ethics and research, but it's also a question of talent." "You just know when an entrepreneur walk into a room versus someone that has put a deck together with a few clever facts versus someone that has really walked in and you know that they can deliver what they're saying." "Making sure that they diversify, that they reach out as much to public art commissioners, to brands, to digital partners, like they really think outside the box." "Ballet is also muting your brain for an hour and a half, which is really good for your anxiety." EPISODE RESOURCES Marine is represented by United Talent Agency for her writing and TV career.

    The Art of Digital Leadership with Tom Higham Creative Director and Founder of Mediale

    Ceri explores the world of digital art and creative leadership with Tom Higham, Creative Director and founder of Mediale. Tom shares his knowledge and experience, from film festivals to cutting-edge digital projects, and gives his thoughts on artist development, community engagement, and the challenges of running a creative organisation. Ceri and Tom also talk about personal health, leadership styles, and share their visions for the future of arts and technology. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tom's career highlights the importance of networking and seizing opportunities in the arts, from volunteering to leadership roles. Effective creative leadership involves balancing artistic vision with practical considerations like funding, stakeholder management, and team dynamics. Community engagement in arts projects requires a genuine interest in people's stories and a collaborative approach between artists and local groups. The digital art sector is very international, presenting both opportunities and challenges for UK based organisations and artists. Successful arts organisations need to adapt their leadership and project approaches based on the specific context and scale of each initiative. Tom stresses the importance of clear communication and boundary setting in leadership, while maintaining flexibility and empathy to be successful. Personal health management, including addressing invisible disabilities is essential in sustainable creative leadership. The arts sector should critically examine the impact and sustainability of large scale cultural events versus ongoing, community focused initiatives and what they can alternatively offer. BEST MOMENTS  "I always found I would tend to let the work expand to fill the time I give it." "Talking, communicating to different people outside of your inner sphere is quite a skill and there aren't that many people in the arts who do that well, I don't think." "You have to build the trust to be able to take that risk, I think that's really important, but also to build that trust, you have to tell a compelling story." "The hardest stuff about being an arts leader is probably, I'm imagining, similar to the hardest stuff about being a leader in the energy sector or in the retail sector. It's people." "I think you've clearly done so well over your career is actually that trust and that deep love that you have for the artists and their idea, but then finding the language and the synergy, those kinds of moments of alignment with somebody else." "Clarity is kindness, you know, and sometimes that means even if you're saying clearly, actually, no, that doesn't work for me, it actually helps people to understand and take action accordingly." "I would suggest to artists that you have to figure out what you want to pursue and figure out how to talk about it."

    Personal Experience and Artistic Expression with Emma Talbot

    Join Ceri as she interviews acclaimed artist Emma Talbot. From her childhood drawings to art installations, Emma shares her experiences of finding her authentic voice, transforming personal experiences into universal art, and creating without external validation. KEY TAKEAWAYS Emma's early drawings were a form of escape and freedom during a challenging childhood, highlighting art's therapeutic potential and laying the groundwork for her artistic path. Art school and early career struggles masked Emma's authentic voice, which she only then discovered after experiencing profound personal loss. Abandoning the pressure to be an "artist" led to Emma's creative breakthrough. Witnessing her partner's death inspired Emma to explore consciousness and shared human experiences in her work. Navigating institutional collaborations and budget negotiations became crucial skills in creating Emma's ambitious projects. Managing multiple international exhibitions requires Emma to focus on the interconnectedness of her work and adopt a methodical approach. Embracing her true artistic identity and interests liberated Emma's creativity, making her work more enjoyable and authentic. BEST MOMENTS "Drawing is, can be, a kind of avoidance, it's like a space you can go into, where it's like everything else disappears, and you, you get to invent what you want." "All we have is this period of time of consciousness and all we do is share the experience with one another." "I don't feel uncertain about my work at all. Because I know what it's doing is just doing what it's doing." "Finding joy is a choice. It sounds so corny to say it out loud, but it is, it is, and you can, and I find that I'm able to do that." "Each person tailors the work to themselves. You know, the work has to be something that suits you." "I think for me a big part of understanding my work was just accepting who I am." "Emma's story is a powerful reminder that creativity is not only a tool for self expression, but also a way to process profound personal experiences "Art is not just about what you make, but about the connections you foster with those who experience it."

    Connal Orton: Author, TV Producer, and Theatre Director on the Power of Mucking About and Flying by the Seat of Your Pants

    Ceri explores the dynamic creative journey of Connal Orton, a versatile talent who's traversed theatre, television, and psychological thrillers. Connal shares his knowledge and personal experiences of creative leadership, embracing risk, and finding joy in the process. From directing plays to executive producing hit TV shows and now crafting gripping novels, Connal's story is a masterclass in adaptability and creative evolution. KEY TAKEAWAYS Embrace serendipity and be open to unexpected opportunities. Many of Connal's career-defining moments came from chance encounters and being willing to try new things. Creative leadership involves articulating the big picture while allowing team members the freedom to handle details, fostering a collaborative environment. Building a loyal audience is crucial. Try to focus on creating emotional connections rather than chasing numbers or trying to appeal to everyone. Feedback is essential, but timing is key, seek input at the right stages and from trusted sources to refine your work effectively. Authenticity in your creative voice and marketing approach can help you stand out and build a dedicated fan base. Playfulness and pushing boundaries can lead to innovative ideas; don't be afraid to be cheeky or irreverent in your work. Transitioning between creative fields can be advantageous, allowing you to apply skills and experiences in fresh ways. Surrounding yourself with talented people and fostering a supportive creative community can elevate your work and open new opportunities. BEST MOMENTS "I often think of the stuff on the wall as being like my sort of holiday photos, which is that they remind me a bit of my own kind of journey." "I want to write something that I think lots of people are going to read and I want those people to find it and love it." "Be your authentic self, if you're going to fail, fail on your own terms and at least believe in the stuff that you're making." "You can't make comedy without enjoying yourself. It's like you don't know whether a joke's funny unless you're laughing at it or not." "Your job very often is to articulate the big stages and let other people look after the detail." "I think what I've kind of learned is...you can be really risqué with things if you do it in the right way and with real confidence."

    Unmasking the Imposter: Empowering Your Creative Confidence

    This special episode is an audio version of a talk Ceri gave the brilliant Working Class Creatives Database in collaboration with Second Act Gallery funded by Arts Council England. Ceri talks all about the pervasive issue of imposter syndrome among creative professionals. Drawing from her extensive experience in the arts, Ceri offers practical help and ideas to overcome self doubt and build creative confidence. From reframing negative thoughts to embracing your own unique perspective, Ceri gives proven advice to help artists and creatives thrive in their careers, tackling imposter syndrome head on. KEY TAKEAWAYS Imposter syndrome is common among creatives, affecting even highly successful individuals. Recognising these feelings as normal is the first step to overcoming them. Separate feelings from facts. Feeling inadequate doesn't mean you are. Practice reframing negative thoughts with positive, empowering ones. Visualise your success and practice power poses to boost confidence. These techniques can reduce performance related stress and enhance self assurance. Focus on finding your tribe, 10 to 12 champions who genuinely appreciate your work can significantly boost your career and confidence. Embrace your unique perspective and creativity. Don't try to fit into spaces that don't align with your values or artistic vision. Prepare thoroughly for challenging situations, but also learn to improvise. Confidence is built through taking action and learning from experiences. Practice self compassion and celebrate your achievements, learn to acknowledge and reward yourself for your accomplishments. Surround yourself with supportive people who are excited by your talent and want you to succeed. Your wellbeing and confidence are paramount. BEST MOMENTS "The difference between those who experience imposter syndrome and those who don't is their mindset during triggering situations. They think different thoughts, which is encouraging because it means we can learn to think like a non-impostor." "Perfectionism has its place. Caring deeply about your work is good. Strive for excellence when it matters most, but don't dwell on routine tasks and forgive yourself for mistakes." "View this as a skill, not a sign of ineptness. The essence of 'fake it till you make it' is to act confidently, take risks, and let your behaviour build your confidence over time." "Confidence is a process, not an end game. Sometimes you have to improvise." "Every single one of you has got something important and useful and gorgeous to contribute in the art world and beyond in society. You are our thinkers, our makers, our see-ers." "If you want more love, you have to give more love. It's really that simple. That goes with increasing your network, increasing your connections with people." "Life is 50/50, right? None of us get out of here alive. So we go through good times, we go through bad times and success for me means that I can deliberately choose on purpose when I get to enjoy the moment." "You deserve to be in the meeting, in the show, at the private view, and your contributions are important." PODCAST HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events.
