Season 2

As we continue to circle the question “what makes great art?”, Sky Goodden spoke with Margaux Williamson, a slow painter who gives the greatest primacy to the work of her work, and to the thinking-through that the work requires. Based in Toronto, and known for both her intense focus in the studio and her community-building in Toronto’s art scene, Williamson speaks with humor and heart about where her  friends show up in her art, and the soft focus that painting requires. “People can be easily impressed by skill, and I know that’s not what art is.”

Momus: The Podcast is edited by Jacob Irish, with production assistance from Mitra Shreeram, and original music by Kyle McCrea.
