Art has the power to engage communities, connect diverse histories, and elevate the stories that shape our world. In today’s podcast episode, host and NOT REAL ART founder Scott “Sourdough” Power sits down with 2024 NOT REAL ART grant recipient Nastassja Swift to discuss the artist’s mission of transformation through visual storytelling.
Based in Virginia, Nastassja is an interdisciplinary artist whose life-sized, needle-felted sculptures explore identity, Black womanhood, and the African diaspora. In our discussion, Nastassja reveals how her background and personal experiences have shaped her work and the narratives she chooses to explore. Nastassja also highlights the importance of sharing resources rather than guarding them, supporting fellow artists, and broadening our definition of creativity. Tune into our conversation on the player below to hear Nastassja’s insights on the transformative power of visual storytelling.
