Today's episode features world famous visual artist Zoë Buckman (b. 1985 Hackney, East London): a multi-disciplinary artist working in sculpture, installation, and photography, exploring themes of Feminism, mortality, and equality. We talk about her origins and the line she tows between soft and hard both as an artist and advocate. Zoë is an intersectional feminist and we talk about what that means as a Jewish woman in 2024.
