In this episode, I have a good old chit-chat with a dear friend of mine, Abi. Abigail Day (Abi) is an MA Contemporary Curation graduate from Portsmouth, currently living in Windsor, UK. Abi works as a Gallery Manager/Curator for Thompson's Gallery. We have an open discussion about our journey to where we are today. We reminisce about our experiences over the last 10 years and what it takes to be where we are today in the art world.  

Today I have a chit chat with actor, Jasmine Bullock. Born in the UK, like myself, we dive into our personal thoughts and experience on growing up in the UK as Asians. We discuss topics from cultural identity, diversity, acceptance, racism and the impact the art world has made.  Jasmine also performs her spoken word piece titled "It Happens In Here Too", which expresses the frustration and reality of racism within communities.  Thank you for listening to my podcast and be sure to check out my website: www.aymwong.com :)
