Welcome back to Where Love Lives, with me, Lulu Le Vay. This is Episode 11, the penultimate in this series, and this show is mega extra special as my guest is artist Ryan Gander in conversation with the lovely Miranda Sawyer. This dynamic pairing wasn’t exactly planned, as on the day of the interview I was so sick with Long Covid symptoms I could barely speak, so dear Miranda stepped in and saved the day.
I feel very humbled to have such supportive and understanding friends, which reflects what this podcast is all about. Friendships are just as important as romantic relationships, so this show is dedicated to the importance of friends in all of our lives. As Maya Angelou says about what makes proper friendship: ‘Try to be a rainbow in someone’s cloud’. So here’s a shout out to all the rainbows out there, starting with my guest Ryan Gander who took time out of his very busy schedule to come into the studios at Soho radio last month.
Ryan is a self described ‘neo-conceptual’ artist and ‘amateur philosopher’ whose work ranges from a life size abandoned betting shop made of glass through to animatronic multi expressive googly eyes popping out of walls. What I love about Ryan’s work is that it’s witty and playful, whilst being able to offer insight and social commentary about the crazy and wonderful world around us. He’s also very humble, fun to be around, and not up himself, which makes me like him even more. To explore his work do follow him on Insta and read all about him here.
