Art is Human Nature
·
My name is Alexander Robinson and I am a visual artist who decided to create a podcast called Art is Human Nature where I plan to redefine what an arts education can be. As an artist, whenever there’s a topic that interests me, I make a painting about it, but lately, I’ve been wanting to learn more about the topics that inspire my art; I want to redefine what an arts education can be. So you may be wondering how do I plan on doing that? Well for each episode, I’ll be talking with someone who knows a lot about the ideas that inspire my art and I’ll also be sharing my artwork with them. If I make a painting inspired by the concept of love, I’ll be speaking with a marriage therapist. If I make a painting inspired by comedy, I’ll speak with a comedian. You get the idea. There’s going to be conversations about things like love, therapy, and activism and there’s going to be a lot of cool art too, so if you are interested in taking this journey with me, feel free to subscribe and follow the Art is Human Nature podcast. And finally, if you’d like to see the artwork shared in each episode make sure you visit artbyrobinson {.com} Music produced by Roosevelth
