RE : The Importance of Investing in Yourself as an Artist w/ Lisa Ray, Co-Founder - TheUpsideSpace

This week on the Arts to Hearts Podcast, we have a special guest, Lisa Ray, who is shaking up the art world with her creativity. Lisa is not just an actor, author, and writer—she's also the co-founder of TheUpsideSpace (TUS). This digital art platform highlights artists from South Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East. In this episode, Charuka and Lisa discuss the importance of putting yourself out there as an artist and the need for a more inclusive art world. Lisa sees herself as a creative wanderer, always exploring and refusing to be limited by one label. While many know her for acting, she considers writing her main form of expression. She has published a memoir, "Close to the Bone," and many articles for magazines like Vogue and Harper's Bazaar in India. Over the years, Lisa has stayed connected to her creative side, and her latest project, TheUpsideSpace, bridges the gap between traditional and digital art. By shining a light on art from places like Bhutan and Laos, TUS helps bring attention to artists who often don't get the recognition they deserve. Lisa's goal is to create a space where all kinds of art are celebrated, and her journey is a true inspiration. Lisa encourages artists to reimagine how they express themselves, and her work with TUS proves her commitment to making real change in the art world. Be sure to check out some of the amazing exhibitions they've put together on the TUS website. Don't miss this episode where Lisa talks about why she embraces vulnerability and her passion for TheUpsideSpace!
