Materials are all around us, but what happens when they get turned into art and design? In this podcast, students at the Rhode Island School of Design explore some of the mediums, elements, and substances that are used by artists and designers in their work. From conventional artworks on ink and paper to more unexpected ones that involve scent and silence, MADE WITH takes you on a journey into and beyond the studio, one material at a time. You’ll learn about the history and properties of the stuff that gets turned into art, and you’ll hear from members of the RISD community about what these materials mean to them. This podcast is created by students in the Spring 2023 art history seminar “The Stuff of America,” taught by Dr. Sean Nesselrode Moncada.

We look at the work of Peruvian artist Ximena Garrido-Lecca, whose work foregrounds the tension between tradition and industry, and speak with RISD Dean of Fine Arts and textile designer Brooks Hagan.
