Ep: 321 - Pursuing Creativity Slowly with Horacio Casillas
Dream with me for a minute - What if instead of stressing out over figuring out everything, you simply take the next step? This week on the podcast, I’m interviewing Horacio Casillas, who is currently a resident at Companion Gallery. And he’s spending this unique time as a resident artist doing just that - taking the time to slow down and think. He doesn’t have the next 5 years of life already plotted out and ticking off the to-do list towards whatever crazy goal that demands to push harder and wake up earlier and grind. Instead (despite giving himself set work hours), he’s allowing himself to reflect and make at a pace that leaves space for new ideas. And as soon as you see his unique style of work, no doubt, you might be a bit more convinced (like me) that there’s something to be said for a bit of slowness in our lives…
The end of the year is barrelling towards us and I seriously cannot wait to share all I am planning and dreaming of bringing to you in 2023. To give you the short version - Let’s just say it’s A LOT more photography resources. So if you want to be sure you don’t miss out on these exciting announcements to come (because let’s be honest - we all know those algorithm-based locations are not reliable), be sure you are signed up for our email newsletter.
