SASHA COURT - Fu*k the rules and follow your intuition
This week I’m joined by Canadian ceramicist Sasha Court for a chat that’s basically creative rocket fuel. We unpack ditching the 9 to 5, breaking up with galleries, hanging onto childlike curiosity, and how she leaned into the intuitive path that’s carried her to where she is today. Sasha is pure creative fire with infectious confidence and we hope this conversation leaves feeling ready to take on the world !You can find Sasha on insta here @sashacourtstudioAnd see her website here https://www.sashacourt.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoruz7Ti40d_cDElyYiVyh1sfRnxLCZ4xg12Yrdg3bINLmwE1-2I Hosted on Acast.
