Episode 16: Hicham Gardaf - A Backwards Creative Process & Documenting Spatial Transformation

Process Piece is not just a podcast, but a full-bodied creative project created and hosted by dance artist Ruby Josephine Smith. The idea behind this project is to explore the creative process more deeply through dialogue, studying the flow of conversation itself as a process while learning to ask better and more curious questions of artists. The podcast includes artists of all mediums, backgrounds, and from all over the world in order to discover both the amazing diversity of views on art-making, as well as what the common threads are between us creators.
