Art and Self with Cindy IngramSubscribers of this Substack will get musings and artwork interpretations about the intersection of art and self. Author: Cindy Ingram
Art is more than a creative outlet or something to study in art history. Art is a catalyst for self-improvement, a tool for understanding the human spirit, and a way to find your path. Through reflections, art conversations, and in-depth explorations of artworks, this podcast might just change your life. Join your host, Cindy Ingramthe founder of Art Class Curator, the Curated Connections Library, and the Art and Self Connection Circleas she explores the life connections waiting to be discovered in works of art. We live in a world that overstimulates our senses but often ignores our needs. With an unending feed of bright lights, loud noises, and information both true and false, it feels like the scroll never ends. Despite the fact that our feeds are constantly live and updating, our souls are not being fed. We need creative thinking, true communication, and genuine connection to ourselves and othersthats where art comes in. Art and Self is both an art and a self development podcast about using art as a way to find your truth, know yourself, and discover the path you were meant to walk in life. Remember, the most important part of an artwork is you. cindyingram.substack.com Language: en Genres: Arts, Education, Self-Improvement, Visual Arts Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it Trailer: |

0: Wrecked and Remade — Why This Podcast Exists
Friday, 11 July, 2025
I’m a mosaic artist, and sometimes I have the great joy of getting to smash a plate with a hammer. The sound it makes when it shatters is sharp, decisive, like a lightning snap.In the instant after, your whole body goes still. You stop, startled. Everything sharpens.That’s what it feels like to be wrecked by art.This podcast is born from that moment—that ache, that awe, that sudden clarity art gives us when we let it all the way in.In this first episode, I share how this podcast has evolved over the years, how my own journey through queerness, neurodivergence, and creative return has changed me, and why I believe art is one of the most honest ways to become whole again.We talk about the glow of stained glass, the ache that art helps us hold, the gold seams of kintsugi, and the creative fire that remakes us.Come listen. Come feel. Come remember who you are.Episode is below or on your favorite podcast player.This week also marks the official launch of the Wrecked by Art Patreon!If this podcast stirs something in you—if you want to linger longer in the ache and awe of art—you’re invited to join me there.It’s a cozy, art-soaked corner of the internet where I share behind-the-scenes voice notes, extended podcast episodes, tarot reflections, sacred gatherings, art prints, and glimpses of my mosaic process.Think: sacred irreverence, unexpected beauty, and the kind of honesty that makes you feel more like yourself.Come be part of the beginning. Founding members will shape this space with me. → patreon.com/wreckedbyart Get full access to Wrecked by Art with Cindy Ingram at cindyingram.substack.com/subscribe
