Heyd and Erin converse with sculptor/installation artist Ann Wood as they enter into a world of decadence and decay with Sophie Coppola's historical drama film about the complex life of French queen Marie Antoninette. Ann's fondness for this movie stems from her Rococo aesthetic with squishy textures, floral motifs and frothy imagery that allow her to frolic in her inner impulses related to "cute aggression". In the spirit of the titular protagonist, Ann provocatively embraces the effeminate with a rebellious edge that will having you saying "Sacre bleu!". Tangents include: pastry fetishes, royal sex ed., Brittney Spears, Monet's water lilies, hedonic treadmill, Art Basel For more information about Ann's studio practice, check out his website https://annwoodartist.com/section/179556.html/ and Instagram @woodannc Follow us on Instagram @artists.talk.movies
