Taking a Break, Artists on Hiatus, with Matthew and Shinobu
What happens to artists when do not make any art for a while? Are they still artists? What do they do with their time? Do they evaporate into thin air?
I sat down with Matthew Evans and Shinobu Akimoto, the co-directors of the Residency for Artists on Hiatus, to talk about the motivation behind the project, some of the non-art activities the residents do, and what happens after the residents finish the residency.
