CONVERSATIONS WITH FRIENDS, EPISODE 3 ~ LISA NICOLL, MULTIDISCIPLINARY ARTIST

In this episode of 'Conversations with Friends,' I have the pleasure and honor of interviewing "punk rock" Lisa Nicoll, a multidisciplinary artist based in Brooklyn, New York. We have quite a talk about her creative journey and delve into her artistic endeavors in writing, photography, musical composition, and theater. Lisa shares her experiences with the sacredness of space, liminality, and how real-world elements influence her creative process. She has a passion for punk rock that she taps for a burst of rebel yell energy, holding boundaries and remembrance of her full spectrum hue-man. We also touch upon each of our paths to greater awareness, the significance of authenticity in art, and the intersection of mysticism and daily life. Additionally, I read one of Lisa's compellingly awesome poems and discuss its profound impact. Lisa also turns the tables and asks me some pertinent questions that make this back and forth so rich with syncronicty and insight. This episode is filled with deep reflections, artistic insights, and the joy of true connection. Join us!
