Podcast Overview
<div>Who is responsible for making a work of art? In each episode of this collaborative podcast series, one anthropologist, specialising in a particular cultural context, has a conversation with an artist of their choosing, exploring issues of authorship and the relational in art. Ranging across geographical locations and creative practices, discussions address and unpack the conceptualisation of the artistic person, authorship as centred upon an individual or bounded group, and the development of responsibility for artworks during and after their making. Every episode brings a fresh perspective on where ideas come from, what agency an artist feels in the creation of their work, and how, and in which contexts, ownership and responsibility for the artwork are claimed. Ultimately, as a collection, the series encourages listeners to think about ‘the artist’ and ‘the artwork’ as dynamic processes in a relationship of authoring. Each series offers a nuanced approach to this relationship. Series one (supported by the AHRC) explores how authorship and responsibility are developed and understood in artmaking. Series two investigates the authoring of artwork as a process of relational creativity. Series three focuses on the intersection of authorship and voice. <br> <br> Artery is a podcast organised by Iza Kavedžija (University of Cambridge) and Robert Simpkins (SOAS, London). <br> <br> Music: Footsteps, by Robert Simpkins.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </div>

S3 Ep5: Aline Motta with Alex Ungprateeb Flynn
<div>Alex Ungprateeb Flynn is Assistant Professor and Graduate Vice Chair at the Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance, University of California, Los Angeles. Working with activists, curators, and artists in Brasil, Alex investigates the prefigurative potential of art in community contexts to theorize the production of knowledge, notions of utopia, and social and aesthetic dimensions of form. Framed by a collaborative methodological approach, Alex fundamentally inquires how human beings express themselves artistically, and in doing so, seek to transform the world.<br> X/ Insta: alexungprateebf<br> <br> With her artistic practice, Aline Motta (b. 1974, Niterói, Brazil) seeks to point out and fill in the gaps in her own family history as a result of colonial erasure. Her videos, photographs, installations, and performances are based on speculative studies that mix archival research, field trips, and oral history reports that she uses to access, nourish, and reveal parts of the past that were previously thought to be lost. In 2023, she exhibited in the Sharjah Biennial 15 (UAE), at MoMA Museum of Modern Art and the 35th São Paulo Biennial.<br> <br> Insta: 1alinemotta (Instagram)<br> <br> The link to article featuring the full interview: <a href="https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fterremoto.mx%2Fen%2Fonline%2Fescribiendo-historias-manifestando-futuros%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cik406%40universityofcambridgecloud.onmicrosoft.com%7C1546749203f141b7aa3c08dc599a8eb4%7C49a50445bdfa4b79ade3547b4f3986e9%7C1%7C0%7C638483767572384428%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=JitFQFMzUtP3N4r7mV%2BzaY%2B1rcXzrQ2igBd3AXKN83c%3D&reserved=0">https://terremoto.mx/en/online/escribiendo-historias-manifestando-futuros/</a> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </div>
