A time-capsule conversation with Jo, Jim, Laura and Steve

Written By stevexoh

The Ocracoke Art Adventure begins in just five days so Jo, Jim, Laura and I thought it would be an interesting experiment to have a Zoom chat about how we were feeling about it all. A kind of time-capsule conversation that we can look back on in five weeks time and witness our past selves talking from a position of not knowing what is going to unfurl over the next month.

In this talk we explore how we’re feeling, what we’re anticipating, the process we have been through to get to where we are right now and various other tangents.

You can watch the full chat below.

Steve is a self-taught “outsider” artist known for his distinctive black and white drawings, his colourful paintings, his 3D wooden cut-outs and his unusual conceptual art projects such as the globally viral “(Not a) Lost Cat” project and “Sound of Silence”, the world’s first silent podcast featuring special guests. He has held various solo exhibitions around the UK and was Artist in Residence at Glen Dye in Scotland in 2022.

Steve finds the World a fascinatingly bizarre place and creates art to give his hyperactive imagination an outlet. His work has been described as “art which captures so well how weird and imperfect the world is.”

Steve is at his best when he doesn’t quite know what he is doing
