Releasing Resistance in the Creative Process: Residency Debrief with Phoebe Stone

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 topic into the conversation, and hits record. This episode is a little different. There is no surprise topic today. Phoebe Stone and Korynn were both at The Corridor Project residency together recently and this is their debrief — the kind of honest, unplanned conversation that only happens when two artists have just spent a week making work side by side in the middle of nowhere. Phoebe Stone is a Sydney-based artist known for her expressive, intuitive depictions of domestic life. Through urgent and immediate mark making she renders the intimate and the everyday, translating feeling and memory into form with a desire to hold onto beauty and fleeting experience. She has exhibited widely across Australia and internationally and has a solo show opening at Hake House on July 11th and work heading to Paris in September. In this deeply honest conversation two artists talk about what the residency cracked open, the one sentence Phoebe said to Korynn that she has not stopped thinking about since, what happens when you release all resistance and just play, working intuitively with no plan and no agenda, frottage on rocks and happy accidents in the landscape, why raw unfiltered mark making carries a pulse that polished work sometimes doesn't, accidentally becoming an artist after leaving interior design, the pressure artists put on themselves to produce cohesive bodies of work and why that can get in the way, and what it actually feels like when you give yourself permission to just show up and respond. If you love art podcasts, conversations about the creative process, or you have ever felt resistance creeping into your practice and wondered how to release it, this one is for you. *New episodes drop whenever the call happens.* **Phoebe Stone Relevant Links:** Phoebe Stone website HERE.
