ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Considering Art Podcast Reprise – Beth Carter, sculptor

In an interview taken from the Considering Art archive in 2022, eminent sculptor Beth Carter talks about the symbolic significance of her bronze sculptures of animals and hybrid animals, how the minotaur became an obsessive subject of her work as she explores ideas of power, vulnerability, and grief, how the theme of duality in her sculptures references part of the human condition, and how one particular charcoal drawing became a way to help process a dark incident in her past.
