For our season 4 finale, we have a very, very special episode for you with the incredible Zoe Buckman. Zoe is a multidisciplinary artist working in sculpture, installation, and photography, exploring themes of feminism, mortality, and equality. Zoe was born and raised in Hackney, London, but has lived and worked and raised her beautiful daughter for many years now in Brooklyn, New York.

After a series of triumphant shows Zoe is now being compared to, and exhibited alongside some of the greatest feminist artists of our time, Louise Bourgeois, Mary Kelly, Tracey Emin and Sophie Calle. So it feels very special to have this time with Zoe to talk about her work, to learn more about how her own stories of tragedy and survival are held within it, and to hear what it means to her to have arrived at this point in her career when it feels things are heading to stratospheric heights…

So if the world is feeling like a dark or difficult place, join us and let your heart be ignited by the fire of the human spirit.

Michael Matania is the founder of Tough cookie, a mental health organisation created to help nurture human resilience.   Michael has said: I work in resilience because I’m interested in how we cope with the inevitable tragedy’s of life, how we tend to the part of us that remains when the rest of us have been decimated.  Michael came to this work following his recovery from psychosis in his late teens, and what follows is one of the most moving personal stories of transformation, and personal courage I have ever heard, so you are truly all in for a very special time with Michael today indeed.

So if the world is feeling like a dark or difficult place, join us, and let your heart be ignited by the fire of the human spirit.
