How Life Informs Art with Artist Marisabel Gonzalez

Send us Fan Mail *Daring Creatively: Unfiltered* is an Australian art podcast where Sydney-based contemporary artist Korynn Morrison picks up the phone, drops a surprise word into the conversation, and hits record. In this episode Korynn calls Venezuelan-born Australian artist and medical medical professional Marisabel Gonzalez. The surprise topic is *how your life informs your work.* For Marisabel, that connection runs deeper than most. She spends her days reading the body in layers through ultrasound, and her nights building paintings in layers in an open-air treehouse studio in the bush. After a corneal transplant that literally changed the way she sees colour, and a studio move that pushed her practice into raw natural light, her work is undergoing its most significant evolution yet. In this honest, unplanned conversation two artists talk about painting outdoors, what eye surgery does to your relationship with colour, imposter syndrome before a big show, creating pigment from grape skins with a Hunter Valley winery, the fine line between commercial gallery direction and genuine artistic growth, and why sometimes the only way to save a painting is to completely destroy it first. If you love art podcasts, conversations about the creative process, or the real behind-the-scenes life of a working Australian artist, this one is for you. **LINKS** Marisabel on Instagram HERE Check out her website HERE Upcoming Events: The Corridor project's artist-in-residence May 17th to 22nd.
