I'm excited to share a new podcast series I’ve been working on with Offshoot TV called FLUX, created at the Belfast School of Art. It’s all about chatting with interesting people connected to the art school and diving into their creative journeys.

While it’s made with students in mind, we hope the wider creative community finds something in it too.

If you’re into textiles, check out Episode 4 with Dr Karen Nickell, she's one of the reasons I started a PhD on Irish embroidery. We seriously nerd out about Irish textiles in this!

Other guests include Colin Murphy, Paddy Connolly, Anna Liesching, and Colin Davidson (as seen here).

We’d love you to listen and follow wherever you get your podcasts - search 'Offshoot presents Flux'. And if you’re a creative with a link to BSOA (even a loose one) and you'd like to be my guest send me a DM. Recommendations in the comments are also welcome, who should I have a chat with?

Huge thanks to Offshoot for all their support. Hope you enjoy FLUX 🎧

I'll link you to the podcast in my stories as well
