About this listen

Behind every creative work lies a purpose. Behind every great collection, a story.


From Hyperlux Magazine comes The Curated Muse Podcast—where we share intimate conversations with artists, collectors, and experts in art, design, and curation. Together, we explore the deep connections we form with objects—why we collect, what we create, and how these pieces shape our lives.


Through honest, thoughtful dialogue, we uncover the emotional ties to art and design, the history behind cherished items, and the magic of intentional living. This is The Curated Life—a celebration of inspiration, purposeful collecting, and meaningful creation.

  • Having a Non-Art Job Doesn't Make You Less of an Artist
    Sep 8 2025

    The myth of the starving artist has done more harm to creative communities than perhaps any other cultural narrative. Somewhere along the way, we've bought into the romanticized notion that "real" artists must suffer for their craft, that having a steady paycheck somehow diminishes artistic authenticity, and that true dedication to art requires choosing between creativity and financial stability.

    It's time to retire this harmful stereotype once and for all.
