In the final episode of Season 4: A Different World, Addoley and Anna have invited Maija Rudovska (Riga, Latvia), the curator of "A Structure Envisioned for Changing Circumstances," to help give advice along with her colleague Amy Mackie (from Parse Nola, New Orleans). In response to a listener's question about art travel and climate change, Maija challenges the notion of going back to "normal." Another listener wonders how to deal with envy towards their friends' successes, leading Amy to question how success is defined. Maija opens up about how she changed her perspective and stopped constantly running after "a better life." As curators, they both reflect on how to create boundaries for oneself and separate life and work in a healthy way. An artist with a practice spanning over a decade is wondering whether their work should surprise the audience with every new exhibition. Listen to find out how Amy and Maija respond as curators, and Addoley and Anna as fellow artists.
