Margate-based sculptor Ty Locke takes menial everyday items and alters them so that they no longer resemble their original purpose - the work encapsulates metaphor, transparency, poignancy and humour. Listen in as Ty and Tia discuss concepts, exhibitions, materials and drag.
Next Gen
What does a place like Thanet have to offer the next wave of creatives? This is possibly too big a topic to cover in a single series. However, we’re going to be investigating this very question in our brand new show, ‘NextGen’. An interview based series that talks to young artists and creatives about their journeys, their inspirations and what it’s like stepping in to a perhaps unpredictable creative sector.
Hosted by the immensely talented Tia Duff, the first series looks at artists that grew up in Thanet, from aspiring landscape architects, to painters, to actors - some choosing to stick around and others having escaped to other parts of the UK
