Photopocene with Rachel Wright - Episode 40

Feb 04 2024 54 mins

After a six-month sabbatical from the Photopocene podcast, what a great way to start back! I'm joined on the first episode of 2024 (and episode 40!) by the delightful Rachel Wright, a photographer whose practice mixes other disciplines, processes and collaborations. She sums this up in her tagline, "photography, mainly". We not only chat about her interests in relatio

Photopocene with Jamie House - Episode 39

Jul 09 2023 42 mins

This episode with award-winning photographer Jamie House is truly fascinating. Jamie has an incredible practice which melds research, process and diverse disciplines to explore the intersections of art, science and nature through the lens of posthumanism (simply put, the decentralising of humans and accounting for nonhumans). Our conversation goes from an 11-year-old Jamie discover

Photopocene with Tess Zahn - Episode 38

Jun 25 2023 38 mins

This podcast conversation has been one I'm so pleased to have had. Please, please do accept the tech glitches in this episode though - I don't know why the airwave Piskies were out and about but I'm sure they won't distract you too much for the wonderful conversation I had with photographer, Tess Zahn. We go from art school to motherhood, from England to Greece, fro

Photopocene with Jo Bradford - Episode 37

Mar 19 2023 40 mins

It is a delight to speak with photographer Jo Bradford for this episode of Photopocene, especially as we have known each other for many years but lost touch in the ebb and flow of life. She is super talented and her camera-less images sing with colour. But Jo is also an author, a university lecturer and workshop leader, and has a new collaborative photography book coming out later

Photopocene with Maria Primo - Episode 36

Feb 19 2023 44 mins

This time, I'm fortunate to chat with the photographer, Maria Primo on the Photopocene podcast. I have been blown away by her work for El Libro de Arena (The Book of Sand). A fascinating look at a story of a sand dune, intertwined with history and intrigue in a place I know little about other than its well-known name. The long-term project acts as a "metaphor of the abs

Okay, so this feels a bit strange but to kick off 2023, I decided, as your podcast host, to interview myself. I’ve tried not to ramble and kept the blips in too… Head to josiepurcellphotography.com to find out more and follow me on Insta @josieshutterpod or visit http://www.exposurephotofestival.com/ and join the Tend Collective on 12 Feb.

What a wonderful conversation with photographer, Sarah Connell. It was a joy to discover more about this very creative "hopeful caterpillar" and how she uses analogue photography to explore the natural world and encourage contemplation. She has recently been awarded an Arts Council England grant for a new research project on the Yorkshire Moors, where she'll be employing camera-les

Welcome to the latest Photopocene conversation with me, your host, Josie Purcell. This time, I'm joined by an upcoming visual artist from North Devon, George Rayner. Graduating in 2021, and receiving an award from Format Festival for his final degree show work, I love the fact that George came to photography on a "whim". We chat about his love for black and white photography,
