In this episode, I speak with Jonathan Freemantle a distinguished artist whose art is deeply rooted in traditional techniques, yet explores the dynamic relationship between the human form, time, and the natural world. Utilizing unconventional materials like egg tempera and mountain rocks, Jonathan's work seeks to harmonize humanity with the earth.
With a global exhibition portfolio and significant contributions as an educator and curator, he has left a notable mark on the art and fashion worlds. Since returning to Edinburgh in 2019, Freemantle has focused on advancing his studio practice, continuing to push the boundaries of traditional and contemporary art.
He shares the daily rituals that fuel his work, highlighting how personal wisdom, coupled with learned skills, creates a conduit for his profound artistic vision.
