The Creative Blood Podcast
So, Arielle Pytka, Artist, Athlete, Adventurer....what is the difference between a great idea and a crazy one?! (And P.S. tell us about your dream to create a studio set-up in the middle of nature?)
Welcome to the Creative Blood Experience. One culture-defining creative guest… One passionate host… And a deck of 50 question cards designed to yield incredible creative tips, real life experiences and untold stories from the artists working across the creative industries today!
Arielle dropped out of school aged 15 to sail across the Atlantic in a vintage boat - an unpopular decision with the grownups in her life and also the dawn of an incredible creative career as a multimedia artist and filmmaker that has seen her exhibit alongside the likes of Nan Goldin, Wolfgang Tillmans and collaborate with rock royalty.
We caught up with the polymath in a rare still moment at her home in Venice, California where she was nursing a broken shoulder (rather than surfing, kayaking, taking photos, painting or making music videos) to pull ten cards from The Creative Blood Experience deck.
In the episode Arielle references Julian Schnabel’s outdoor studio which you can see in this film by Nowness, one of her favourite photographers Bill Henson who she connected with on his socials and the Language Transfer App she’s using to learn Italian at speed.
And take a leaf out of Arielle’s playbook and connect with her on Insta.
After you’ve listened (or even whilst!) take a closer look at her Archipelago series, the first ever show at LA’s renowned fashion and art space, Just One Eye.
This episode was created in partnership with the brilliant humans here Creative Blood and Scenery Studios.
