Peachy Keen and guest co-host Stephanie Raines, artist advocate and arts administrator, visited Nashville-based artist Chalet Comellas-Baker in her artist-run exhibition space (Unrequited Leisure) just as all of us pandemic mole people were beginning to peep our little heads out of our burrows. Fittingly, after a year of not being with other humans, we talked about wildlife— particularly bird sounds as they relate to Comellas-Baker’s most recent artworks—and Nashville life among the honky-tonks (honky geese included!).
Chalet shared the process behind her collaborative work with Clint Sleeper that’s currently on view at MOCAN, gave us really cute mini-zine maps that guided us through her current projects, and dropped some insider knowledge on the nuts and bolts of showing and getting paid for video work without using NFTs.
