All in podcast
In the 66th episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown is in the midst of a roadtrip and makes a stop in Atlanta, GA to interview her friend Ken Oriole. Sarah and Ken first met in New York City through mutual friends and his job as a sound engineer has always fascinated her. In the past year Ken had moved to Atlanta and since Sarah was driving through, this was the perfect opportunity to learn more about what Ken’s job entails.
In the 54th episode of Perceived Value host Sarah Rachel Brown sits down with the 2020 Halstead Grant Winner, Christina Grace of TIN HAUSE Jewelry. Having been the guest judge for the 2020 grant, Sarah was eager to speak with the woman whom she had come to know so much about through her application.
The two women connected from across the country to discuss Christina’s diverse experiences which included competing in pageants, modeling, being a working actress in L.A., practicing meditation, and how jewelry making as her Hollywood side hustle eventually led to her next career.
In the 51st episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown is in Boston, MA as a visiting artist at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts. Sarah has been invited to speak to the metals/jewelry students about her diverse studio practice and record a podcast episode while on campus. Boston is home to the only curator dedicated solely to jewelry in the United States and so asking Dr.Emily Stoehrer to be the guest for this special recording was a no-brainer.
Sarah and Emily were already acquaintances having met while both were presenting at the ECU Symposium in 2018. In the SMFA library while students and faculty looked on, the two women sat down to discuss Emily’s transition from working at the District Attorney’s office to student at FIT, the stress of fronting business expenses, Boston traffic, and what exactly does the day-to-day life as a curator involve.
In the fiftieth episode of Perceived Value host Sarah Rachel Brown has traveled to Arcata, CA as a visiting artist at Humboldt State University. Thanks to a fortuitous miscommunication, Sarah’s plan to interview the students was reversed and for the first time on the podcast, she’s the one answering the questions.
In the 47th episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown continues her recording on-site at the American Craft Council conference which took place in Philadelphia this past October. Sarah sits down Jennifer Ling Datchuk who was the ACC Emerging Voices Award winner in 2017.
Even though they had never met previously, the two women took no time warming up to each other in conversation and enthusiastically jump into topic after topic. The two artists discuss how Ling paid her way for her education, how she has taken control of managing her student loan debt through educating herself and staying informed, and what it means to be named ACC’s Emerging Voices Award winner.
