Today we speak with Erika Trotzig, a London-based artist currently on show at the Torrance Art Museum (TAM) in Torrance, California, for Special Relationships.
Trotzig began in fashion, viewing each individual as a sculpture itself but began creating found-materials sculptures to tell a broader story on failure as a methodology. Through constructing teetering sculptures, Trotzig finds the balance of precarity to be a statement itself against the motto of continual progress.

Continuing out partnership with the Torrance Art Museum (TAM) in Torrance, California, we bring you our conversation with Zavier Ellis, a UK-based artist presenting a solo show at TAM titled Sites of Conflict.
Zavier draws on the immense history of protest movements and surveys the patterns that emerge through the use of slogans, leaders, signs, and walls. Sites of Conflict opens during a prescient time in Los Angeles, as widespread protests have occurred across the city and nation against immigration raids. In this conversation, Eric asks Zavier about his examination on audience's reactions to his work and, in a deeper sense, the content of it.

Pricing artwork is probably one of the most difficult tasks for an artist. Is the time you spent painting, sculpting, or rehearsing actually worth anything?
YES, say our hosts! And Lisa has some of exact figures to consider to figure it all out!

She then discusses with eric the 5 factors to consider as mentioned in Talking Prices: Symbolic Meanings of Prices on the Market for Contemporary Art.
