In this episode, Nora speaks to social practice artist Ethan Lipsitz. Diagnosed with brain cancer in 2017, Ethan discusses how his diagnosis shifted his perspective, the roles of curiosity and acceptance in his journey, and the evolution of his artistic practices.
Their conversation delves into the impact of their respective health crises on their identities, the balance between embracing love and mortality, and the subtleties of connecting with others through transformative experiences. Ethan also speaks to the changing language of love, the challenges related to the stoicism inherent in masculinity, and the importance of creativity in living a fulfilling life.
