In the final episode of season one, we speak to artist and poet Becky Nuttall about her deeply feminine work and wonderful poetry. she talks about what it was like growing up in a religious school with an egocentric father and how, in her midlife. she began to truly express her emotions on both through mixed media art and writing which she now exhibits
from her website:
'Working from her South Devon-based studio Becky creates a coalescence of allegorical art and concepts. These reference the nature and implications of theology, religious violence, guilt, piety, art history, feminism, popular culture and conformity. - defining and considering how these are interpreted in adolescence.
Becky draws inspiration from a childhood immersed in art; her father was writer and artist Peter Draper who in turn was close friends with Hubert (Nibs) Dalwood. Peter was also a founder member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen. Alongside this creative home life are influences from a lifelong love of Dadaism, Surrealism, Kurt Schwitters and the effect of being a Protestant girl from an unconventional background in a convent school.'
We talk about everything from working in truth, what makes a good artist and how her daughter shaped her life and therefore, her incredible art. join me in rounding off the year of 2020 and the very first season, with the extraordinary voice of Becky Nuttall.
