About this listen

In this episode, I sit with Carla, an Artist and Educator that I have met recently through our Masters in Creative Practice.

We begin with my statement: “To decolonise is a spiritual practice,” exploring how it resonates with her, and move into an exploratory conversation about identity, creativity, and the ways colonisation has disconnected us from our collective humanity.

We reflect on what it means to come from a mixed racial background, the impact identity can have on creative flow, and the historical and ongoing ways educational institutions have marginalised Black people. Carla shares her thoughts on how identity is made up of layers, and the ways society values — or undervalues — art created by Black and Brown people.

This is an honest, thoughtful conversation that invites listeners to reflect on race, creativity, intuition, and the journey back to both personal and collective truth.
