Jacob van der Beugel in conversation
Episode 1
Wednesday, 7 February, 2024
This conversation between artist Jacob van der Beugel and students from Andover College, ruminates on the language of ceramics, and how his practice has incorporated unexpected materials such as concrete, to communicate new meanings. This diverse discussion addresses topics such as the potential of partnerships between art and science; and explores the ideas presented in his work, including his interest in genetics and DNA, the relationship between determinism and self-determination, and in what ways his works might be seen as ‘portraits’.Jacob van der Beugel’s solo exhibition ‘Wherever the Two Shall Meet’, located in the gallery of Roche Court, was the starting point for this episode, with the students visiting the exhibition and also enjoying a virtual visit to the artist’s studio as part of their research into his work.There is a lot here to interest anyone from an art or science background, especially young people who may be considering a career in the arts.Find out more about Jacob van der Beugel here: https://jacobvanderbeugel.com/Thanks to: Dan Coggins for producing this episode. Thanks also to the New Art Centre, Carlie Windows and students from the art department at Andover College and especially, Jacob van Der Beugel for generously giving his time.
