In this episode, Nick Butcher and Nadine Nakanishi of Sonnenzimmer speak with interdisciplinary artist and poet Osée Obaonrin. They discuss the collaborative process behind the print, Gentle Fractures, published in conjunction with CPG’s fundraiser for the South Side Community Art Center, Gentle Fractures took shape over virtual meetings, weekend test sessions, and long distance communication in the last months of 2020. The resulting print is a break from the intuitive, tactile methods Osée normally employs in the studio. This separation and collaboration yielded a print none of the three could’ve forecast. Thank you Osée, Nick, and Nadine for giving us a look inside the edition. You can see Gentle Fractures, learn more about the process, and purchase a print at https://tinyurl.com/gentlefractures. All proceeds benefit the South Side Community Art Center. Thank you to Osée, Nick, and Nadine for sharing their thoughtful conversation.
