A Podcast for Creative People is exactly what it sounds like.
Join me (Christopher Tallon, writer & musician) as I talk to creatives across the spectrum of art, culture, and business about what they do, why and how they do it, and whatever else comes up in an unscripted conversation centered around creativity.
No scripts. No “type” of guest. No “target audience” or “key demographics.” Just real conversations about what’s at the heart of a creative’s creativity, and what their creative process looks like.
Listen on:
Ep.92 | Cocoon ArtSpace – The Collaborative "Growth" Exhibit – A Podcast for Creative People
Cocoon Art Space is a vibrant art gallery and studio located at 327 S. Division Ave in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Founded by artists (and married couple) Josie Garcia and Tedd Smith, the space serves as a hub for local creativity, offering a rotating selection of exhibitions, handmade goods, and community events.
The "Growth" exhibit celebrates nine different artists, who over the course of two months, illustrated, painted or sculpted their idea of growth into one collaborative piece. I talked to a few of the artists about how this whole thing worked. Those artists are:
John Jurries*
Tedd Smith*
Corinne Roberts
Kat Vanderweele
Jenny Hearns*
C.R. Warner*
Robyn Smith*
Christina Hutton
Lain Leo
