What if a mask wasn’t about hiding, but about revealing? This week, we step into the evocative world of Katie Green, a visual artist who brings identity, emotion, and self-expression to life through eerie yet ethereal watercolour portraits, murals, and masks. If you’re curious about the art of ‘finding a face’ in watercolour, how artwork can conceal and reveal identity, or the power of personal and public storytelling, you won’t want to miss this conversation.

In this episode, we sit down with Amanda Cobbett, an award-winning textile artist whose stunning embroidered sculptures bring the intricate textures of nature to life. From delicate fungi to organic bark formations, Amanda’s work blurs the line between scientific observation and creative craft. If you’ve ever felt tempted to try your hand at free-hand embroidery, been mesmerised by the beauty of fungi (or just wondered how someone could embroider a toadstool so convincingly it might start sprouting spores), this episode’s for you.
