We Are Art People is an interdependent conversation series — exploring possibilities for making and being in dialogue with the world, as a creative person. Bringing together diverse narratives and complex perspectives, our commitment is to facilitate a space of autonomy and resiliency for the artists’ voice. A goal is these process-driven conversations will bolster community and provide an open-resource for other creative people, navigating their journey and in relationship with the world. Located in Brooklyn, New York — we are engaging in a dialogue through a radio broadcast, publishing and site-specific projects — our conversation series is facilitated by New York-based artist, Emily Nam.
