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.
Amy Elizabeth is an artist and film photographer living in Minneapolis, MN. She runs the group The Art Lab for creatives who want to connect and push forward in their artistry. She is also the owner/operator of Film Lab 135, a bespoke lab dedicated to processing experimental film, specializing in film soup. You can find her on Instagram, substack, and bluesky @itsamyliz.

ep. 021: Artist Exploration/The Voynich Manuscript
This month instead of studying an artist, we’re studying a mystery (spoooooky). If you haven’t heard of the Voynich Manuscript, you’re in for a real treat. This 600 year old work of art is written in an unknown language, containing unknown plants, mechanisms, charts, and mixtures.
If something contains nothing that is known, how is it NOT a hoax?
Great question. Maybe it is, but despite all the secrets contained in this codex, the experts still have enough facts surrounding it that make it likely being something real and even communal.
Listen in today to learn about its provenance, the mysteries, the facts, and hear about Amy and Chris’s favorite hypotheses. What’s yours?
