episode 253 : mary farrell
Notas del episodio
This week Miranda speaks with Mary Farrell, a printmaker based in Spokane, Washington. They talk about how Mary’s upbringing (with her father’s work in tuberculosis research and her mother’s near-miss with a life in a convent) created a childhood that shaped her perspective as an artist. We explore her long love affair with the human figure, her fascination with the parallels between the body and the natural world, and how she uses printmaking processes like mezzotint to pull light from darkness—literally and metaphorically.
It’s a conversation about labor, love, and the lifelong unfolding of artistic voice, a reminder that, as Mary says, our best work is always still ahead of us.
