Welcome to the Earth Bodies podcast! We are five art students based in Bristol, who noticed a lack of discussion surrounding sustainability and inclusion in contemporary art and wanted to share from our experiences where we believe the industry is thriving and lacking. Initiating new conversations about the art scene and dispelling myths and pre-conceptions, each week we hope to shed some light on some previously untouched topics and attempt to break down the exclusivity that is still rife in this field.

In the final episode of the series we discuss our thoughts on beginning the final year of our Fine Art degree during the pandemic, we will be speaking about how current and past restrictions have changed our experience of education and how both universities and students are having to adapt. We hope you've enjoyed this series, it would be amazing to hear your feedback. Our social media is earthbodiescollective on Instagram and Facebook, and the same for our email address @gmail.com.

Getting into Art Education: The Art Foundation Diploma
Our seventh episode will introduce the Foundation Diploma in Art and Design; a one year qualification often completed between college and university. The Earth Bodies team will share their experiences of the course, and why they think it is such a crucial step in art education that can often be missed. It is also a great way to get into art education if you haven't had any prior experience, such as creative GCSE's, so we believe it is important to draw awareness to it. PS The next episode will be the the last of the series so be sure to tune in and let us know what you've thought of the series!

How Do I Make My Art Sustainable?

What is 'Fine Art'? Unpicking Art Terminology
Here's episode 2 for you! Today we'll be discussing what the term 'Fine Art' means to us, as well as some other art terminology that can be confusing or inaccessible. We wanted this to be one of our first episodes as these words will probably crop up in our discussions over the course of the series.
