Introducing Nua Collective's season two premiere episode - 'WHAT MAKES AN ARTIST PROFESSIONAL?'. Presented by Nua Collective Artistic Director Eamonn B. Shanahan, Nua Collective artists Caoimhe Heaney and Robert Jackson discuss what it is to be a professional artist. We investigate Ireland's new Basic Income for the Arts Scheme and consider the many different facets that potentially determine the status of an artist.
