The Dowse Podcast: Artists as Editors

this is the cup of your heart is an exhibition that brings together artworks exploring memory, longing, and grief. Curator Alice Tappenden says she wanted the exhibition to present these ideas without feeling overly sentimental.

Listen to The Dowse Podcast team in conversation with the 2015 Blumhardt Curatorial Intern Alice Tappenden, Director of The Dowse Art Musuem Courteny Johnson, and Ruby Joy Eade, one of the artists featured in the show, as they discuss the ways in which artists are not only creators, but also editors, which allows them to allude to and invoke emotion, without becoming overbearing or mawkish.

Thank you to Marie Shannon for allowing us to use the beautiful cello piece that accompanies The Achen Faxes in this podcast.
