EP18. Kitchen Sink Narratives

In this episode, Janet walks us through an art movement that influenced her during her childhood: kitchen sink realism. Join in as we walk through the history of kitchen sink paintings, the inspiration taken from the similar ash can movement in the US, and the ways that people have always spoken up about societies that don’t provide for their needs. This was such an interesting episode to record, and we hope you’ll learn something new. See below for books mentioned!
