I am very honoured to publish this series of episodes with David Andrew, Associate Professor of Fine Arts at the University of the Witwatersrand School of Arts (South Africa).In this first episode Prof. David reflects on the profound influences that shaped his path -his childhood, parents, various mentors and role models. Prof. talks about the role of art in his life's meaning, social justice and accessibility. These experiences shaped his commitment to making art education inclusive for all. His transition into teaching would serve as a key moment in his life where art as a bridge between personal identity and societal change guided his path into fine arts education. We explore how life itself unfolds like a masterpiece, guided by synchronicites that weave meaning into our jpurney.As we recorded, Magic, my cat made his presence known-a deeply resonant sign. David recently lost his beloved cat Foundy and we both felt that in Magics playful noises, Foundy's spirit was with us. Yet another reminder that art, just as life, holds space for connection, presence and the unseen thread that binds us all.
