- One might think that in order to create and appreciate fine-art a person would require sight. However, this week’s incredible guest is a world-renowned artist who defies this logic by creating beautiful paintings and jaw-dropping sculptural installations whilst also being blind.
This week on Talking in the Dark Evie speaks with artist and patron and ambassador for the VICTA charity Clarke Reynolds.
In this colourful conversation Evie learns all about Clarke’s life and work covering a wide range of interesting topics including Clarke’s VI condition and his journey to becoming an artist, the many different types of stimuli that inspire his creativity, and his fantastic work using Braille as a mode of artistic expression.
This was a wonderfully provocative conversation with a brilliantly creative talent, we thank Clarke very much for his time and involvement.
AD: In the podcast graphic there is a purple background with the title ‘Talking in the Dark’ written in white top centre. There are also two distinct photographs on either side and in between them is an image of a microphone. The photograph on the left-hand side is of Evie who is sat behind a grey desk. Evie has shoulder length red hair and is smiling. She is wearing school uniform. The photograph on the right-hand side is of Clarke Reynolds. The photograph was taken outside in a park setting, it is a sunny day and in the background there are large oak trees, green grass and people milling around. In the foreground Clarke is knelt side on to the camera. He is dressed in his bright yellow suit which is covered in black braille and he is reaching out with his right hand to a young red-haired girl who is investigating the dots on his sleeve. Clarke is also wearing a blue baseball cap with orange rim, dark sunglasses and has his white cane held under his left arm.
