    The Scientist, The Philosopher, The Muse

    In this soulful episode, artist Madhurima Ganguly invites us into a world where painting becomes more than practice but also a ritual. For Ganguly, art is both a private journal and a divine encounter as a space of healing, surrender, and profound self-discovery.  We explore how curiosity guides her, how identity shifts across continents, and how themes of body, ritual adornment, and beauty standards move through her work. Together, we question what it means to define art, how intimacy translates into public reception, and how her creative practice evolves alongside the chapters of life.  Discover more on our website and follow us on Instagram!

    Geographies of Becoming

    On this special episode, we are joined by Paloma Núñez-Regueiro to discuss printmaking as both a political act and a personal archive. Born in Peru and raised in Mexico, Núñez-Regueiro reflects on a life shaped by migration, multiplicity, and belonging. Her work, grounded in a rigorous process of research, reading, and intimate interviews, positions printmaking not just as a medium, but as a mode of resistance, repetition, and collective remembrance. Weaving together political memory, diasporic identity, and visual storytelling, the Ann Arbor-based artist speaks on visibility, medium hierarchy, and how theory shapes image.  Discover more on our website and follow us on Instagram!

Through a nuanced conversation, he shares insights into his methodology, the intuitive construction of imagery, and the urgency of capturing the present moment through layered and textured form.
