Welcome back to ARTMATTERS: The Podcast for Artists. My guest back again today is Helen Frederick, an artist whose career has spanned decades of innovation in printmaking, paper-making, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Helen earned both her BFA and MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design, and went on to found Pyramid Atlantic, a hub for contemporary printmaking, hand paper-making, and book arts. Her work is held in over 45 international collections and has been exhibited in prestigious institutions like the Phillips Collection, MoMA Kyoto, the Whitney Museum, and many more. She has also served on numerous arts boards and panels and is a Professor Emeritus at George Mason University.In today’s episode, Helen and I discuss working from leftovers, strengthening your position for creation, will power, perfection and survival. Helen also explains how she finds answers in chaos, why she believes artists are warriors and together we explore a collaborative series of works she is currently in the middle of.This conversation is continued from last week’s episode.
