There are some fascinating insights into the creative process in these discussions between painter Ben Quilty and composer Andrew Ford.
Quilty is one of my favourite artists, and I recall Ford giving a talk to my Arts Journalism class at university in the early 90s.
So far I’ve listened to the first two recordings in the series and particularly liked the second – very moving: looking at the way an artist struggles to address difficult human experiences.
