In this episode of PhotoWork, Sasha talks with photographer Elinor Carucci. Sasha and Elinor have a very personal and candid discussion about art, family, regrets, getting older in the public eye and navigating life during the pandemic. Elinor even shares her current favorite food. Hint: it’s a fruit. There’s a lot of love and warmth in this episode so, definitely, a very touchy-feely version of Sasha’s Book, PhotoWork: Forty Photographers on process and Practice.
In this episode of PhotoWork, Sasha speaks with her friend Kris Graves who is a photographer and the founder of Kris Graves Projects, a collaborative publishing house for photography that addresses contemporary social concerns. Kris talks about being a Black photographer in the contemporary art world and makes a surprise announcement about a new platform for artists. Sasha and producer Michael Chovan-Dalton start this show with a somewhat longer introduction to provide some more background about Sasha and her connection to this first series of guests for the show.
In this episode of PhotoWork, Sasha speaks with Bryan Schutmaat who, in 2020, received the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Fellowship. As Sasha likes to describe the show, it’s a talky and touchy-feely version of her book, Photo Work: Forty Photographers on Process and Practice, and she and Bryan talk about his process and practice as well as his thoughts about the art world in general and what it means to call yourself an artist.
