Manage episode 418298909 series 3388037
Daniel meets the British filmmaker and artist Sir John Akomfrah, who is representing the UK at the Venice Biennale with his work Listening All Night to Rain.
Mentors can have many guises. For Miriwoong artist Jan Griffiths, Tiwi artist Johnathon World Peace Bush and Gomeroi Yinarr artist Sophie Honess, they each chose someone who could offer them artistic guidance as well as cultural knowledge. The resulting works were commissioned by the National Gallery of Victoria for a show called My Country.
Producer Stacy Gougoulis visits the home studio of children's book illustrator Zeno Sworder, whose book My Strange Shrinking Parents was a hit of 2023.
