In the 76th episode of Perceived Value, host Sarah Rachel Brown is at the Penland School of Craft during their Winter Residency. This episode is part of a special series featuring the Distinguished Fellows of the Penland Winter Residency. As the Andrew Glasgow Resident, Sarah has been awarded two full weeks to conduct interviews and research at Penland during their winter program. Sarah was encouraged to share a portion of her work with Penland’s artist community, thus this special series.
The fourth and final Distinguished Fellow to be featured is Shani Richards, a metalsmith from Akron, Ohio. The two metalsmiths sat down and discussed what Shani was focusing on during her time at the Penland Winter Residency. Shani being no stranger to fellowships or residencies, their conversation evolved into discussing the pros and cons of pursuing a career as a full-time artist, how Shani is navigating her current nomadic lifestyle, and what she hopes for in her future.
This special series is possible due to the support of the Penland School of Craft and the Andrew Glasgow Residency.
Thank you to the Penland staff and artists for the generosity of your time and participation.
