In this episode, Catarina Diaz talks about how memories of a childhood in the Portuguese colony of Angola are central to her collages, how a period of depression turned her from a successful career in education to becoming a full time artist, how her art emphasises the beauty of life and seeks to empower viewers to work on their creative selves by exploring their inner world, how her collages explore modern female identity, and how she has delved into fashion and collaborated with other artists, musicians and film directors.
