This is the last episode in the series of collaborations with Print Austin interviewing their 5 x 5 Exhibition artists. As you’ll hear the exhibition is currently open in the Tin District in Dallas and closes on October 24th. So if you’re any where near than make sure not to miss it!
Today on the podcast, Miranda speaks with Austin, Texas–based printmaker and architect Juliee Beyt, whose journey into printmaking is what she calls her second act.
After spending decades working in architecture, Juliee found herself confronting an irony that a lot of people in creative professions can relate to: the more successful you become, the further you can find yourself from the actual act of making. For Juliee, printmaking became a way to reconnect with the creativity, experimentation, and joy that had drawn her to design in the first place.
In this conversation they talk about the surprising connections between architecture and printmaking, the pleasures of working in a process-driven medium, and why being a beginner can actually be a wonderful place to be.
They also get into some of the stranger phenomena of the art market. Why does everyone at a particular art fair seem to want the exact same print? Why do certain images suddenly take over our collective imagination? Remember when everything had an owl on it? And why is everyone making prints of sardines right now?
But beyond the technical and the commercial, this conversation moves into something much bigger: why we make things at all. What does it mean to create an object that becomes part of someone else's life? And how does making art allow us to leave a little piece of ourselves behind in the world?
It's a really lovely conversation about creativity, curiosity, community, and the immense satisfaction of making things with your hands.
