For this episode, Hernease sits with former resident, Joshua Tonies… twice, due to technical issues with their first audio recording. Joshua was extremely generous to record for a second time to speak about his residency experience, his layered obsession with house plants and how he uses animation technology to make the intangible, tangible. This episode will be a hybrid combination of the first and second recording. For every interview, Hernease asks each resident to answer the question, “Where are you from?” Joshua’s answer during that first conversation was too wonderful not to include. So please bear with the audio quality for the first 12 minutes of their discussion. And stay tuned at the very end for an epilogue discussion with Joshua around a very special piece he made during his time in residency at VSW.

Hernease Davis sits down with the artist, Raymond Thompson, Jr. at the end of a very busy season that included a tour that launched his recent book project, entitled, Appalachian Ghosts: A Photographic Reminagining of The Hawks Nest Tunnel Disaster, which caused the death of nearly 800 workers, 2/3 of which were black americans. Their conversation focuses on an ongoing series that Raymond worked on as a resident at VSW, entitled “It’s hard to stop rebels that time travel”- Both of these projects are very much related to one another in terms of how Raymond is approaching the North American landscape that is both research driven and integrated with speculative and imaginary interventions. Raymond made numerous references to important artist scholars whose works greatly influenced his directions. Links to Raymond’s work as well as those important references are included in the show notes.
