Liz and Jeremy discuss the end of the artist process: release.
This is the very hard task of relinquishing control of your art. How do you decide when the work is done? How do you interact with your audience? What does the art mean, in the end, and who gets to decide what it means (creator or audience)? And how do you make peace with wrong interpretation? And what does the Bible have to do with any of this? (A lot, apparently.)
Liz and Jeremy wax poetic on the role of audience and talk about the freedom that comes from letting go of your creation.
We also discuss the fine art collages that precede Chapters 10 and 11 in the book that has inspired this podcast.
