Episode 133 | Deborah Grayson

This week on Hello, Print Friend Miranda Speaks with Deborah Grayson. We talk about her practice working with photos of institutionalized black women from archives of insane asylums and how an artist handles such sensitive material without further exploiting the subjects, the history of racism within scientific and health fields, centering the story of black women, and how she protects her own mental health while working with such difficult material. Not to mention her getting a PhD in American Studies working on the history of black women and quilting in the US and the healing power of walks in the woods.
