    Artist Decoded by Yoshino

    “I started this series as a means for exploration, an exploration of self, and an exploration of the perspectives of other artists.

    This series is an unabridged documentation of conversations between artists. It’s a series dedicated to breaking down the barriers we tend to set up in our own minds. I want to inspire future creatives to have the courage to explore and experiment. This is about making dreams a reality and not about letting our dreams fall to the wayside.

    My intention is to give my audience a sense of real human connection, something that feels rich and organic.

    When I was thinking of a title I thought of the word “movement”.
    In relation to the Renaissance period in art, my goal for this program is to signify a rebirth of consciousness towards the way we look at contemporary art.”

    Specific Training And The Socratic Method with Kit Dale | AD 147 Mar 06, 2020
    Show notes

    https://www.patreon.com/artistdecoded

    About Kit: Kit Dale was born on January 24, 1986, in Melbourne, Australia, growing up in the area's eastern suburbs. During his formative years Dale practiced a number of athletic activities, from karate to inline hockey, as well as Australian football (Aussie rules), a sport he competed in extensively prior to jiu-jitsu. Australian rules football is widely recognized as one of the most physical sports in the world, generally played by large individuals. Although a very athletic competitor himself, Kit lacked the physicality of some of the other players, a handicap Dale sought to overcome by learning a few grappling tricks, starting his jiu-jitsu training in 2008 with Robert Parmakovski – a man who would, years later, become Kit's own student. BJJ came natural to Dale, who soon started allocating more of his time to grappling and less to Aussie rules football. While climbing the ranks of jiu-jitsu Dale trained with Bernie Jenkins (up to blue belt) and Peter De Been (up to brown belt), while also doing plenty of training and experimentation on his own or with friends/students. Once the highly decorated grappler, Yuri Simões moved to Australia, Kit started training with the Brazilian. The two established a strong relationship as friends and training partners, and it was Yuri who promoted Dale to black belt on June, 2013. At the time of the ceremony, Dale had just under 5 years of training, this being one of the fastest rises to the rank recorded by then. Dale would later move to California, USA, one of jiu-jitsu's epicenters in order to improve his grappling skills while also attempting further his acting career. Topics Discussed In This Episode:

    • His early interests that led him to BJJ
    • His rapid success in the world of BJ
    • Challenging the status quo in BJJ. Live training as opposed to drilling.
    • Kit's method of "Specific Training"
    • Improvement through active problem-solving
    • His personal keys to a rewarding and happy life
    • His recent interest in a career as an actor
    • His relationship to problem-solving and the Socratic Method
    • How he applies his methodology of BJJ mastery to the rest of his life.

    My Thousand Sounds with Adam Lee | AD 145 Feb 21, 2020
    Show notes

    https://www.patreon.com/artistdecoded

    About Adam: Recurring themes in the work of Adam Lee are the act of pilgrimage, shelter and an itinerant, nomadic sense of home. Transmitted through a community of hermits, shawl-shod women and regalia-laden gentlefolk traversing deserts, forests and valleys or reposing in tabernacles or dreamed abodes, Lee's practice ties together narratives of memory, imagination and transcendence. Through his works on linen and paper, Lee builds worlds where allegory and atmosphere coalesce to suggest a highly personal outlook informed by collective folklore and legend. These interior histories find their physical manifestation in Lee's varied but self-contained technique, which is characterised by mercurial landscapes and a contemporary tenebrism. His oils on linen are a resonant amalgam of sanded back layers of pigment, highly saturated sfumato and a sensitively deployed portraiture, with his watercolour ink works evincing a command of shaping ethereal blooms into impressions of externalised thoughts, sensations and calls to a higher being.

    Topics Discussed In This Episode:

    • Processing his experience from the 2017 residency at Glasshouse (in the South of France) and the exhibition "Monolith" that followed.
    • Balancing intuition in creativity with years of academic research.
    • Unbiased honesty in the work of children.
    • The positive and negatives aspects of the inundation of information as a contemporary artist.
    • How his thought process and work is changing
    • Taking a more specific and personal approach to work.
    • Using art to process and understand life's difficult experiences.
    • The unavoidable implications of the influence of commerce on art.

    Facing Survival with David Kassan | AD 141 Jan 24, 2020
    Show notes

    https://www.patreon.com/artistdecoded

    About David Kassan: Raw, poignant and profoundly honest, David Jon Kassan's work aesthetically captures humanity in its true form. As an artist, Kassan acts as an empathetic intermediary between the subject he portrays and the viewer. More than simply replicating his subjects Kassan seeks to understand them. He seeks to capture the essence of those he paints, imbuing them with their own voice. They communicate with the viewer interpersonally and we see them through our own eyes. Our gaze transcends the picture plane and permeates deep into the subject's psyche. We are moved by Kassan's depictions, captivated by powerfully expressive hands, pensive faces, and flesh that appears warm to touch. Kassan's portraits pulsate with the lives of his sitters – the weighty streams-of-consciousness of past experiences, feeling and introspection.This is what reality means to Kassan – preserving the realness of nuanced emotion and expression emanatingfrom the people he paints. Kassan's technical mastery of oil paint combined with adept draftsmanship enables him to fluently represent what he sees. This is evident in the stunning flesh tones Kassan achieves. Transparent layers of oil paint are built up, forming an intricate lattice of veins, blood and skin. Through this light enters and is reflected back, infusing the subject with veridical luminosity. We can also sense movement and life beneath the undulating creases and folds of clothing. It is the artist's intent to control the medium of oil paint so that it is not part of the viewer to subject equation. Kassan facilitates an interface between subject and viewer with which he is conscious not to interfere. The technical aspect of his work is thus a means to an end; an end rooted in the viewer's experience.We find inherent contradictions in Kassan's work as it oscillates between representation and transformation, reality and abstraction.

    Topics Discussed In This Episode:

    • Kassan's journey creating paintings based on his interactions with Holocaust survivors, and his recent emotionally transcendent experience exhibiting these works at the Fisher Museum of Art at USC.
    • How his early paintings of his family allowed him to develop a closer relationship with them.
    • Wanting his students and followers to understand more of why he paints other than how he paints.
    • The power of overcoming great trauma, and how it inspires Kassan artistically.
    • Grappling with the issue of how people dehumanize one another.
    • The balance between the emotional, and technical process of painting.
    • Making artwork that doesn't necessarily follow trends, or the desires of a gallery.
    • Working with the Shoah Foundation, and how they help genocide survivors.

    Room For Multiplicities with Maja Ruznic X Yore | AD 138 Dec 12, 2019
    Show notes

    https://www.patreon.com/artistdecoded

    About Maja: Maja Ruznic, a prolific and active artist, is primarily a painter, a storyteller who conjures form and narrative from ground up mineral, smeared oil, and stained canvas. Born in Bosnia and Hercegovina in 1983, Ruznic immigrated to the United States with her family in 1995, settling on the West Coast where she eventually went on to study at the University of California, Berkeley, later receiving an MFA from the California College of Arts. Ruznic's often-quoted biography – a refugee who escaped the Bosnian War – is only the beginning of her journey. Ruznic's vivid paintings speak for themselves, depicting figures that seem to emerge from the caverns of human history, from within their own supports, and somehow from within the viewer's own recollections. These paintings breach something intrinsically human and Ruznic guides us deftly with dark humor and complex representations, not dissimilar to Werner Herzog's wry, but poignant 3-D documentary depicting the oldest painted images in the world. Ruznic has exhibited internationally and her work has been written about extensively, most notably in ArtMaze Magazine, Juxtapoz, San Francisco Bay Guardian, Studio Visit Magazine, and twice in New American Paintings, including the cover as selected by curator Anne Ellegood. In 2018, Ruznic was a recipient of the Hopper Prize and in 2019, Ruznic's painting "Azmira's Daughters" was acquired by the Dallas Museum of Art. In 2020, she has upcoming solo shows with Conduit Gallery in Dallas, TX and Hales Gallery in London.

    Topics Discussed In This Episode:

    • Practicing "Is-ness"
    • Maja moving to Roswell, NM
    • Intaking artwork at a subconscious level
    • Recognizing and healing from pain and trauma
    • Maja growing up in Bosnia in various refuge camps
