In  the Labour block of episodes of the podcast series, Conversations with  Aliens of Extraordinary Ability, we try to better understand the working  conditions in the cultural and creative sector in Norway through conversations with artist union representatives, researchers and artists.
In this episode, Ruben Steinum, the chair of Norske Billedkunstnere/Norwegian Visual Artists Association and I (Prerna Bishnoi) talk about how artist unions liase with politicians and influence cultural policy, what NBK's policy goals are, what is a "patchwork economy" and how artists fall through the chairs of the welfare system, and plenty more. Tune in!
