Walk into a Kinko’s to use a copier…but make it art? That’s exactly how this month’s artist, Pati Hill, got her start—through xeroxing everyday household objects.
What started as the role of family historian, turned into framed pieces on gallery walls. Why objects? Why a photocopier? And what makes something appeal beyond the reach of our own homes?
Listen in today as Amy and Chris talk about using unconventional tools, finding creativity in the constraints, whether photocopies make for good art, and if objects might actually have a life of their own.

The controversy around Sally Mann’s work took up a lot of brain power during the month of February. And how do you translate that into your own piece of art?
It can feel overwhelming to try to say something BIG, but that’s when it becomes necessary to take a step back and focus on your own story.
Join Amy as she walks through her piece for the month, inspired by Sally Mann and intersecting with her own religious upbringing and the well-meaning, but highly damaging, messages many 90s teens received.
