The Inquisitive Artist: Melody Thornton (Part 1)

A wide-ranging conversation with award-winning artist and photographer Melody Thornton, about art, identity, and the personal stories that shape her provocative and powerful work.

In this two-part episode, Melody welcomed me into her lovely house in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, to dive into some deeply personal and thought-provoking topics including identity, sexuality, and social issues, as well as LGBTQ+ experiences and body politics. From her evocative self-portraits to conceptual collections, challenging societal norms or inspired by personal loss, Melody shares the stories behind her art with vulnerability and passion.

Please note: the conversation includes potentially triggering discussion of sexual violence, so listener discretion is advised.
