Contemporary art writer and curator Joana P. R. Neves interviews Stephen Ellcock on the occasion of the release of his fabulous book “Elements”. What drew him to this fascinating topic? And how did his ecological trepidation make it into the book? It’s impossible to ask a visual culture curator how they manage to present beauty and dread, spirituality and fear… But this delightful conversation will provide a few clues.

Is the book an exhibition? And if so, what kind? There is a mystery underlying these questions, which is the different kind of power images have in the different spaces they live in. We talk about Stephen’s Instagram account which he feeds daily, and the huge number of followers it attracts, proving that images do hold influence. But how?

Exhibitionistas’ first year offered exhibition discussions with guest co-host Emily Harding; organically, it grew into a more experimental show exploring art topics, stories and interviews complemented by Joana’s publication Art Thinkosaurus on Substack. She champions ‘Art Wonderment’s’ embrace of complexity against the lure of ready-made opinions. A polyglot, she grew up in Lisbon, studied and lived in Paris, to finally settle in London with her artist husband, four children and two cats.
