Steve Xoh

Steve Chapman, better known as Steve Xoh, is a visual artist and creator with an unusual, yet endearing and playful twist on reality. In this episode we talk about Steve's wide-spanning array of unique ideas and his need to constantly create. With a seemingly endless pit of inspiration, from the surreal to the down right silly, he captures his audiences imagination and brings them along for the ride. Despite the huge success of some of these projects, Steve has an admirable and intuitive sense of when to stop. Despite his fans often wanting more. I've been one of those fans for a while now, and talking to him here only deepened my admiration and respect for him as an artist and all-round great guy. Hope you enjoy the episode.

Don Travis

In this episode I speak with Don Travis, photographer and co-founder of Future Hackney. Don has lived in Hackney almost her whole life and is passionate about her community and it's cultural diversity. Future Hackney is a public art project, telling stories of the area and it's people's through photographic imagery in public spaces. We talk about her current displays, Gillet Square Stories and Protest Stories - both of which are currently live and can be seen in Dalston and Hackney, respectively. We also chat about current issues facing the East End and the country at large. We discuss how Don's documenting of protest groups such as; Just Stop Oil, Extinction Rebellion, Trans Lives Matter, Black Lives Matter and many more, alongside the current strike action have given Don optimism for a more positive future. Don is a really strong and inspirational woman, so it's fitting that this episode is released on International Woman's Day 2023. Enjoy. You can follow Future Hackney here @futurehackney

Tiffany Roubert

In this episode I sit down with French film photographer, Tiffany Roubert.In 2018 Tiffany took on a part-time role with Alternative London while she developed her photography career. During the pandemic she spent time in her wife, Carla’s native Brazil and took her photography full time.Tiffany’s images capture a life lived in the moment and her style, along with her obvious rapport with her subjects, can turn the most mundane situations into pieces of art of the highest quality.    Needless to say, I love Tiff’s work and have really enjoyed seeing her evolving as an artist and building up a well-deserved, dedicated fanbase over the past few years.Last week saw the release of her first publication – In Between – so I thought it was a good time to catch up and talk about her journey since leaving Alternative London a few years back.Due to a mistake with the recording, we unfortunately lost the first ten minutes and had to start again. A shame, as we were in full flow and it felt a bit contrived revisiting those parts but I think we found our way back in.Hope you enjoy it. You can follow Tiffany’s work here: @tiffanyroubert
