Ophelia Arc on Masters Degrees and Memories

For artist Ophelia Arc, early memories are not just echoes of the past but a rich source of inspiration for her artistic practice. In today's episode, Arc takes us through her evolving artistic practice where memories blend seamlessly with Arc's interest in theory. Arc showcases how her experiences at the Rhode Island School of Design, particularly through niche courses and critique, have fuelled her understanding of art in a broader and interdisciplinary context.Transitioning from academia to the commercial art world is an adventure filled with unpredictable encounters and collaborations. She shares her insights on making these transitions smoother, emphasizing the powerful relationships with curators and collectors that have shaped her path. We explore the enduring value of keeping a sketchbook and active drawing practice, not just as a tool for artistic growth but as an archive of personal evolution. Arc's work can be found on Instagram and her website, offering a window into her vibrant world. Ophelia Arc’s latest group show, "Tomorrow is Already Behind Us", opens on Friday, January 17 2025 at the New York Lyles and King gallery.  Connect with the Artalogue: Madison Beale, HostBe a guest on The Artalogue Podcast
