Episode 24 explores the work & trajectory of NYC-based artist, Gwyneth Leech. For almost a full decade, Gwyneth has been fascinated with painting the building and construction of massive skyscrapers in NYC. Find out what prompted this new subject matter and where it led! We talk about Gwyneth's creative path, the places imprinted upon her, choral singing, and the possibility of architecture to address the challenges of the current climate crisis. Gwyneth's artwork has been featured in solo and group shows throughout the United States and Great Britain and is the subject of a multi-award winning documentary, The Monolith. Her paintings are held in private and construction-industry corporate collections in the USA, Great Britain, Italy and Australia, including the New York Historical Society Museum.
