My guest on today’s episode of Holding Up the Ladder is art writer, curator, advisor and founder of Black British Art, Lisa Anderson.
With a background in international relations and an MA in Human Rights, Lisa’s love of art and curation was sparked while at university - it’s an intimate story, one that I’ll leave her to share in her own words.
We talk about identity, belonging, the importance of representation, of seeing oneself in the world around us, not just in our homes but in culture. We talk about London, about Britishness about Black Britishness. We talk about being part of a London ‘scene’ and as always we talk about music.

Title: I’ve always sought art that I could see myself in
