Episode Three: Xaviera Simmons

In this week’s episode of How To Be An Artist, Kate Bryan speaks to American artist Xaviera Simmons. Based in New York, her work spans photography, performance, video, sound, sculpture, and mixed media. Bryan sits down with Simmons to discuss racial injustice, her attitudes to craft, and how art can be a part of the critique of power systems. Simmons’ works can be found in major museums, including The Museum of Modern Art and the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Her artwork features in Ludlow House – and soon in Shoreditch House – as part of Soho House’s permanent art collection.
