Reflections on The Ocracoke Art Adventure

Written By stevexoh

Back on the 2nd January 2023, five days before the Ocracoke Art Adventure began, Jim, Jo Laura and I chatted on Zoom where we talked about anticipating what might happen as part of a “time capsule” conversation.

We decided that we’d repeat the conversation again once we returned from the island and today, exactly three weeks after we arrived back in London, we spoke on Zoom and reflected as to what on earth this whole experiment had been about.

You can watch the full conversation below.

Thank you so much to everyone for being part adventure through your patron donations, lovely messages of support and joining us along the way through reading this blog.

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
