Photopocene with Brittonie Fletcher - Episode 21 - sharing eco-conscious photography in an audio way

<p>This podcast is a fantastic way to welcome 2022.</p> <p>Join me, your Photopocene host Josie Purcell, as I chat with Brittonie Fletcher, an educator and artist based in Edinburgh, as we take a riveting and fun rollercoaster ride through her photographic and personal story.</p> <p>It’s a joyous conversation about tenacity as Brittonie’s superpower, the colour purple, coping with distraction and life’s curveballs, and even making a darkroom in a pub cellar.</p> <p>We discuss Brittonie’s eco-darkroom workshops with <a href="https://www.penumbrafoundation.org/">The Penumbra Foundation</a> and <a href="https://stills.org/">Stills</a> in Edinburgh and how terminology in the eco-sector is used to imply ‘green’ positivity and how we reconcile this in our photographic practice.</p> <p>The importance of how photography melds art and science, how politics and punk influence Brittonie’s creative process, the use of materials in artistic creation, and how being experimental is an intrinsic element of how she creates photographic art are all touched on.</p> <p>Head over to Brittonie’s website at <a href="https://www.brittoniefletcher.com/">www.brittoniefletcher.com</a></p> <p>Find her on Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/etherwaves/">https://www.instagram.com/etherwaves/</a></p> <p>Some other interesting links where you can see her work too:</p> <p><a href="https://www.edinburghlofi.com/exhibitions/2022/metamorphic/">https://www.edinburghlofi.com/exhibitions/2022/metamorphic/</a></p> <p><a href="https://massart.edu/auction">https://massart.edu/auction</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.riphotocenter.org/">https://www.riphotocenter.org/</a></p> <p>To take part in the Photopocene podcast, email josie[at]josiepurcellphotography.com or via <a href="https://www.josiepurcellphotography.com/contact">https://www.josiepurcellphotography.com/contact</a></p>
