Film Interview

Episode 1 of Corbeau Art Space's Creative Isolation and Beyond project. 

In this episode, Julie chats with Roleystone textile artist and poet, Virginia O'Keeffe. Her generous and indelible spirit makes this an interesting and heartfelt listen, where she talks about loss during the Victorian fires, exploring India and its traditional textile methods.

Added bonuses are Virginia reading one of her stunningly creative poems based on creativity and showing us some of her innovative quilts that always carry narrative and socially aware themes.
