Anita De Soto - Lessons from teaching & doing a MFA

In this episode I talk to Anita De Soto about her experiences of getting her MFA and also teaching in the MFA program. Anita and I discuss how a master’s program can provoke critical thinking and creative practice. We chat about the value of a community within master’s programs, where collaboration and exchange of ideas foster a supportive network that can last well beyond graduation. Anita talks about the structured environment of a master’s program that can allow for experimentation with new materials and concepts, encouraging students to push the boundaries of their work and develop a strong artistic voice. The emphasis on hands-on making, alongside theoretical analysis, can help equip students with the tools to articulate their ideas and intentions and help clarify their artistic identity.Anita De Soto WebsiteAnita De Soto InstagramYou can find the podcast hereAnd the podcast newsletter hereThanks so much for listening!
