Talya Brookman on Painting, Process & Backing Yourself

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. In this episode Korynn calls British abstract painter Talya Brookman, based in Sydney. Raised between London, Los Angeles and Australia, Talya's practice is shaped by a lifelong negotiation between movement and stability, and a deep sensitivity to how place is internalised and carried. In this honest, unplanned conversation two artists talk about battling a painting mid-show and knowing when to stop, the solitude of studio life and how to balance it, going viral on Instagram and what that actually means for an artist, working across large scale abstract canvases in a small studio space, celebrating other artists without competition, the untethered feeling of growing up across multiple countries and how that shaped the work, and why backing yourself is the most important thing you can do. Talya's solo exhibition *Inner Grounds* is showing at CBD Gallery in Sydney from May 21st to June 13th, go and see it in person if you can. 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. *New episodes drop whenever the call happens.* **Talya Brookman Relevant Links:** Talya's website HERE.
