<p>TALK’s Season 1 Finale comes to a close with artist, Lina Sun Park.</p> <p>On this episode Dana and Lina sit down to TALK about how Lina has stayed busy with her ephemeral creations throughout the pandemic.</p> <p>Based in Brooklyn, Lina, who used to make paintings and interactive installations found herself on more of a craft trajectory during the COVID-19 quarantine. She began taking her everyday surroundings - things like fabric and food and using them to create art. She enjoys that her creations are ephemeral -- that they don't last, specifically she loves that art pieces can be fleeting, which is a quality she finds to be especially beautiful. An added benefit to Lina’s creations is that because they are so carefully crafted with fabrics and materials she usually already has lying around is that they don’t contribute to even more waste.</p> <p>Dana and Lina discuss what the future of art might look like, the benefits and downsides of social media, how she tends to find inspiration for her art pieces from poetry, movies and music as well as what her creative process is like when she gets started on a project. She also shares her grad school experience which we found super interesting.</p> <p>Why TALK loves Lina -- We love that Lina’s work spans across so many different mediums and she’s found new ways to stay inspired and create art using just everyday items in her home,</p> <p>We also love that she’s so thoughtful when working on her projects and enjoys creating pieces that don’t contribute added waste to the world. We look forward to seeing all her ephemeral creations and whatever else she may later have up her sleeve.</p> <p>FOLLOW LINA: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/oo0000oo0/">INSTAGRAM</a></p>

<p>Welcome to Episode 9 of TALK with Photographer and Creative, Prod Antzoulis.</p> <p>Prod and Dana talk about their mutual love for analog photography. We also learn how Prod's creative journey began, his intricate thought process when planning a concept for a shoot, his source(s) of inspiration and so much more.</p> <p>Prod is a Cypriot born photographer, videographer and creative director raised in Dubai. Based in the Middle East - Antzoulis shoots professionally, as well as for the heart, capturing daily sparks of attraction and fashion set-ups. Prod has worked with brands such as Gucci, Saint Laurent, Red Valentino, Okhtein and Amina Muaddi. Most recently, he shot GQ Middle East covers, including Latin pop-star Maluma, Mustafa the poet as well as the ‘Self Isolation’ issue chronicling tales that documented interactions between himself and eight Arab talents scattered across the globe, shot over Zoom during quarantine. He has also shot covers for Elle Arabia, Jamalouki, and Emirates Woman.</p> <p>Prod and Dana discuss some of the challenges they’ve both faced when they’ve chosen to shoot analog vs. digital and how they’ve overcome those challenges as well as how they’ve proven their worth to doubtful clients. They also discuss projects they’ve worked on together, Prod’s love-hate relationship with Instagram and we get a deeper look at the GQ cover project he took on during the pandemic.</p> <p>Why TALK loves Prod -- We love that Prod has always stayed true to his chosen creative method - analog photography. While it’s sometimes been an uphill battle, occasionally consisting of clients needing to observe bigger publications publishing his work to see that he is indeed very good at what he does, it’s paid off for him. We also love that at the heart of Prod’s projects lies a true desire to connect with other people and nurture the energy he shares with his subjects. Lastly, we love that he took a difficult time during the pandemic and turned it into a beautiful and thoughtful creative project.</p> <p>Prod’s work has been featured in Vogue Italia, GQ, Schon! and Oyster Magazine, as well as regional publications such as Vogue Arabia, CNN Arabic, Mille World, GQ Middle East, and Emirates Woman - and he’s just getting started.</p> <p>FOLLOW PROD:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/prodantzoulis/?hl=en"> </a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/prodantzoulis/?hl=en">INSTAGRAM</a> | <a href="https://www.prodantzoulis.com/">WEBSITE</a></p>

<p>Welcome to Episode 8 of TALK with artist Amanda Wall.</p> <p>On this episode Dana and Amanda sit down and discuss all things art. From Amanda’s first artistic inspiration to when she picked up a paintbrush about 3 years ago and started to explore painting as an emotional outlet - only to find out that she was actually really good at it.</p> <p>Amanda, always having been drawn to art has consistently found herself in creative roles, whether they had to do with brand identity and packaging, fashion, photography - in her own words she puts it perfectly, “It’s all about creating emotional response to basically an inanimate thing, and it’s something I’m really drawn to doing.”</p> <p>Dana and Amanda also discuss Amanda’s previous roles including modeling, and how that role has made her reflect on her value versus now being in a more creative role. The conversation addresses some very valuable topics, specifically navigating public perceptions, imposter syndrome and insecurities, and how self-doubt seems to stem from what we think we are “supposed” to do. They also discuss the best way to deal with a creative block and how hard it is to actually take a relaxing vacation.</p> <p>Why TALK loves Amanda -- We love that Amanda jumped into this creative outlet and is now a self-taught painter participating in numerous curated group shows. We also love her perspective on using art as an outlet, she makes a great point about periods of great art and breakthroughs in art following especially hard times and we couldn’t agree more.</p> <p>FOLLOW AMANDA: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/amanda_wall/?hl=en"><u>INSTAGRAM</u></a> | <a href="https://www.amanda-wall.com/"><u>WEBSITE</u></a></p>
