EP 5 Lucy Chapman : Part 1: 'Peace Unity Love and Having Fun’ for the Unity Art Project, Raising Money for The Trussell Trust.

Today, on the Art Seeker Stories podcast 5th Episode  I’m delighted to chat with artist Lucy Chapman, a London based artist, who is  primarily a print maker whose themes explore avenues within photography and recreated objects. Lucy is a teacher specialising in Inclusion and has recently founded  the Unity Art Project, raising money for The Trussell Trust. 

 Lucy is such a great kind soul, I first met Lucy online when she asked me for an artist interview as I was one of the artists who were adding their own work on top of her print ‘Peace Unity Love and Having Fun’ for the Unity Art Project. 

 We connected so well that I ended up with almost 3 hours of recording. I have taken the liberty then, of cutting the episode in half as I felt everything she shares is so deep and meaningful, it wouldn’t be fair to select and cut bits out, where would I start? 

 In this 5th episode, part 1,  we chat about her Art Seeker Island, a blend of London and Wales, and her chosen artist artworks for company:  Rachel Whiteread’s House in London and Holocaust memorial, in Vienna. Mark Bradford’ 150 portrait tone and Wild Wild West : A Beautiful Rant  & Julie Cockburn’s Nirvana 1, featured in her book Sticky Beak. We also talk about dyslexia, Lucy's  discussions with her dad are featured in the Listening Project for Chanel 4.  

The Unity Art Project Lucy founded raised over £3,000 for The Trussell Trust
