Joe's obsession - The Garden of Earthly Delights, Hieronymus Bosch

<p>In this episode, artist Joe Ramirez takes us inside Hieronymus Bosch's legendary Garden of Earthly Delights and talks about how this work influenced his own vision - The Gold Projections, a unique fusion of painting, cinema, and immersive installation. Trained in Chicago and London, he has spent over a decade (and even more) exploring matter, light, and time. This episode, where ancient art meets contemporary vision, through obsession and slowness, is a special one.
