Description

Georgina Godwin meets acclaimed artist Conrad Shawcross, whose monumental sculptures and kinetic installations blur the line between science, philosophy, and public space. From his latest work Umbilical — debuting at Here East before moving to MONA in Tasmania — to his reflections on failed theories, urban transformation, and the role of unpredictability in art, Shawcross offers a fascinating look at how creativity connects people to place.


This is an episode about vision, beauty, and the evolving role of the artist in a fast-changing world.
