In this episode of ArtFreaks we are joined by Margate based Video Artist, Guy J Oliver.
Often musical, with humorous word-play, Guy's films expertly balance a light-heartedness approach to serious topics with a deeply personal narrative that is so admirably vulnerable that it leads the viewer to self reflect and examine their own feelings and relationships.
In this episode we talk about the thinking behind the video work and how his increasingly vulnerable and personal films are conceived.
We also discuss Quench, a non-profit gallery and project space situated in Margate, run by Guy and his partner Artist Lindsey Mendick. Quench is centered around community and support that allows emerging artists the freedom to explore new ideas and put on exhibitions to showcase their talent.
