In My Art Collection
The gloves Judy Chicago gave me… This episode takes you behind the scenes into my personal art collection—starting with a pair of gloves given to me by feminist icon Judy Chicago while helping her install Be No More at SF MoMA. It wasn’t just a task—it was a turning point. I share what that moment taught me about trust, legacy, and creative leadership. As we hit the halfway mark in the year, I invite you to reflect on the people and moments that helped shape you. I also share stories from other artists and spiritual seekers who’ve passed the torch in their own way—and how honoring them can fuel your next evolution Let’s do this together. Honor what formed you. Release no longer helps you.

Sacred Storytelling with Swoon
Caledonia Curry, known as Swoon, is sparking profound change through the sacred tradition of storytelling. From her emotive portraits to championing women’s visibility in the street art movement, to channeling the divine feminine in her Medea series, Swoon uses her art to challenge entrenched narratives and asks: “How can art fundamentally re-envision the communities we live in, toward a more just and equitable world?” Swoon and I get into a juicy convo about origins of her creative frequency, the seminal role of personal narrative, and how her journey led to the Medea series. She shares details about her signature woodblock technique, the evolving meaning of legacy in her practice, and dreams that continue to inform her work. Join us and hear how this artist — with work on walls across the world and in the permanent collections of MoMA, the Brooklyn Museum, and Tate Modern, and profiled by PBS American Masters — is reshaping public art, using instinct, felt senses (intuition), and inner visions dreams to fuel everything from iconic portraits to stop-motion films, immersive installations, and a commission for Alicia Keys. At its heart, this episode is about art as a tool for healing, communication, and cultural transformation. Whether you’re an artist, storyteller, or changemaker, I hope you are able to show up for yourself, trust your intuition, embrace vulnerability, and center the stories that matter most. In this episode, we discuss: 🎨 The making of the Medea series and the personal mythologies woven within 🌍 The pivotal travels that reshaped her practice toward collective, community-led work ⚡ The Ediphone Series, a new body of work visualizing what sound looks like ✨ Creative Prompt: What feels alive in your project right now?

Artist Susan Weil with Callie Jones
I couldn’t help but feel a bit nostalgic talking about gallery shows and leadership in the arts in this next great episode. Callie Jones—gallery owner, writer, and co-founder of COL Gallery in San Francisco—joins the Female Frequency Podcast, showing us what leadership in the art world looks like and why the future is female! Callie takes us behind the scenes of COL Gallery’s latest show: an intimate retrospective, a journey through the evolution of Susan Weil. This rare exhibition offers a close look at Weil’s creative process—cutting, crumpling, and refiguring—revealing a multiplicity of perspectives through the lens of abstraction, deeply informed by the female experience, and places her firmly within postwar art history. Hear the stories Weil lived through: studying in Paris in the late 1940s amid the echoes of modernism, then continuing her training at Black Mountain College, the legendary crucible of American art innovation. Now, after decades of being overlooked, her contributions—including early collaborative cyanotypes with Robert Rauschenberg—are finally being recognized, with works held at MoMA, The Met, and featured at the Venice Biennale and the V&A Museum. Stay to the end—Callie also shares insider advice for artists and collectors navigating today’s evolving gallery world. Highlights we talk about: Susan Weil’s experiential approach to art-making, always rooted in her female experience Weil’s activism beyond gallery walls How traditional gallery models are changing—and how artists need to invest in themselves to sell art 💥 Did this episode sparked something in you?

The Butterfly Effect by Judy Chicago

The Butterfly Effect by Judy Chicago
What starts as a symbol becomes a signature. What begins as intuition becomes influence. In this episode, we're recording on location inside Through the Flower, the feminist art space founded by visionary icon Judy Chicago, to explore how one visual language—the butterfly form—sparked a global creative movement. The butterfly? It's a metaphor. It's a message. It’s medicine. From her radical Atmosphere Series—where she asked, “How can I feminize the landscape?”—to her groundbreaking collaboration with Maria Grazia Chiuri at Dior with a 250 foot long goddess, Judy’s work doesn’t just blur the lines—it redraws them, making space for women to be both revered and recognized. 🔥 Episode Highlights: Behind-the-scenes stories from Judy’s journal entries and creative rituals The Butterfly Effect: how Judy has made an impression on fashion, dance activism, and education. Why intuition is the most powerful creative currency we have today 💡 Once you see the butterfly, you can’t unsee it. And once you understand the power of signature visual language, you start to see your own. Here’s the truth: We’re no longer in the “wait to be discovered” era—we’re in the define yourself, brand it, and broadcast it era. And Judy Chicago? She was the blueprint.

The Chevron Code

The Chevron Code
Think the chevron pattern started with ancient Greeks ? Think again. In this episode, we go way back—Neolithic to Now—to explore the chevron as a sacred symbol of Divine Feminine, of bird energy, of intuitive communication that’s been carried through generations of art, ritual, and meaning. This week’s episode of Female Frequency is inspired by The Language of the Goddess by Maria Gimbutas (shoutout to my sister Kristin for pulling it from the library stack 🙌). We’re diving deep into how a new wave of archaeologists, artists, and scholars like Max Dashu are reinterpreting ancient cultures through the lens of the female experience—centered in feminism, ecology, and social justice. Plus, we do a fun creative exercise to help you access the divine through pattern and intuition.

In Dust We Trust with Kate Clark
What if history wasn’t just something we study—but something we step into? Have you ever stepped into someone else’s shoes—literally? That’s what came to mind when I first saw Kate Clark’s ceramic work. It wasn’t just about material—it was about perspective. Her work sparked deeper questions about empathy, compassion, and the subjectivity of the female form in art and history. What happens when we look at the past through someone else’s eyes instead of our own assumptions? In this episode of The Female Frequency Podcast, Kate takes us into her world where relics of the past meet contemporary storytelling. Her motto, “In dust we trust,” honors what’s been discarded and reconsidered. Whether reinterpreting the Venus of Willendorf or embedding forgotten objects into her Seattle Convention Center commission, Kate shows us that art is a time capsule, and artists are its keepers. We also dive into the business of being an artist—negotiating public art contracts, managing large projects, and navigating the post-pandemic art world. Kate’s blend of creative vision, entrepreneurial strategy and storytelling is a blueprint for artists making art a career today. In this episode, we discuss: ✨ How Kate’s public art redefines artifacts in storytelling. ✨ The challenges of landing and negotiating major public art commissions. ✨ The reality of running an art business—from materials to scaling projects.

Art As Frequency

Art As Frequency
Your creativity is the medicine the world needs right now. Art isn’t just something we create—it’s a force that transforms. This week on Female Frequency Podcast, I’m reflecting on Brené Brown’s words: “Art has the power to render sorrow beautiful, make loneliness a shared experience, and transform despair into hope.” We’re exploring Art as Frequency—how color, content, and connection shape the energy of a piece and influence both the creator and the world around them. In honor of Women’s History Month, we’re diving into the energy of art—how it shifts the vibe, heals, and activates change, revealing its frequency at its core. When women use their creative voices, history is rewritten, and the future takes a new form. In this episode, I highlight Simone Leigh and Shilo Shiv Suleman, two artists using their creative power to reshape narratives and inspire movements.

In this episode, you’ll learn about: ✨ Building Bridges: Why understanding and engaging with local art communities is essential before introducing transformative changes. 🎨 Accessible Art: Heather’s strategies for making exhibitions relatable, including a surprising approach to simplifying museum wall text. 🌸Fearless Advocacy: How Heather amplifies marginalized voices, advocates for women’s rights, and uses nuanced messaging to drive meaningful conversations. Heather’s fearless commitment to representation and dialogue will leave you inspired to think bigger about art’s role in shaping society—especially in unexpected and challenging places.

Driven by Content with Cappy Thompson
How do you transform a single moquette into a work of monumental significance? Today on Female Frequency Podcast, I am honored to welcome the incomparable Cappy Thompson, whose approach to being creative has forever altered the landscape of public art. With the largest single image glass painting on display in the United States, Cappy’s work challenges the status quo, encouraging artists to not only think bigger and to ground their creative endeavors in content. “My work—which spans several decades and a variety of scales, from the intimate to the monumental—has always been driven by content,” Cappy reflects. This philosophical and feminist approach to art-making is evident in her signature mythopoetic style, a blending of storytelling and symbolism. Whether in her monumental 33 x 90 feet installation at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport or her intricate 12 x 15 foot mural, Gathering the Light at the Museum of Glass, Cappy’s work defines what it means to create art that resonates with a journey and connection. Her story is a roadmap for women artists seeking to secure large-scale commissions in a male-dominated field, cultivating meaningful relationships, and the magic of surrounding yourself with people who mention your name in a room full of opportunities. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ The roadmap behind monumental public commissions, including her iconic works at Sea-Tac Airport. 🤝 The significance of artist-to-artist relationships, including Barbara Earl Thomas, Dale Chihuly have shaped her career. 🎨 Cappy’s autobiographical sensibility and innovative use of grisaille painting techniques and vitreous enamels to create intricate, mythopoetic narratives that push the boundaries of glass art.

Informed by the Sea with Kait Rhoads
Every episode brings fresh inspiration, and today’s conversation is no different. I’m thrilled to be joined by Kait Rhoads, an artist who dreams big. Her intricate glass sculptures, limited-edition jewelry, and public artworks all reflect her relationship with the ocean. Today, we dive into everything—from subjugation and underwater ecosystems to art espionage! In this conversation, we explore the intricate ties between her artmaking, ecology, and community because, as Kait says, “My method of construction mirrors how my life has formed me, with individual elements woven together to create a strong whole.” Kait Rhoads’ story is one of transformation, bold creativity, and unapologetic innovation. From growing up on a boat to becoming a Fulbright scholar in Venice, Italy, she immersed herself in centuries-old glassmaking traditions steeped in patriarchal legacies. While honoring these techniques, she envisioned something entirely new. This fusion of respect and reinvention led her to develop her signature Hollow Murrine method, creating breathtaking sculptures collected by museums worldwide, including the Pacific Seas Aquarium, Seattle Art Museum, Corning Museum of Glass, Museum of Northwest Art, Shanghai Museum of Glass, Tacoma Museum of Art, and the Toyama Institute of Glass Museum in Japan, among others. Highlights you will love: How important grants have allowed Kait to involve community members in her public art commissions.

A Call to Attention with April Surgent

A Call to Attention with April Surgent
“Artists have a unique opportunity to challenge the viewer,” reflects American artist April Surgent. This adventurous, gutsy woman is a record keeper of time; her art offers viewers a glimpse into the fragility of our ecosystems through glass, a material that holds, refracts, and reflects light. As urbanization distances us from the environments we depend on, April's cameo glass engravings call us to attention—a moment to "Stop. Look. See. Listen. Smell. Touch. Breathe. Think. Learn." In this conversation, we explore her career through life-changing experiences, from Pilchuck Glass School to her ongoing collaboration with the NOAA Hawaiian Monk Seal Research Program, where she confronted marine debris and witnessed the immediate effects of climate change, to a commission for Iowa State University. April approaches artmaking as a comment on the status quo and a mirror reflecting our world. Her contemporary approach to the ancient art of cameo glass engraving expands the medium’s boundaries, both in scale and subject. Through an inward, reflective process, she moves through mark-making, including pinhole photography, to capture the delicate interplay between light and shadow, ultimately engraving her composition onto sheets of glass. We dive into the artmaking and the public response evoked by In Our Absence. There’s a profound mystery to her work—moody, and some might even describe it as haunting, in a way that feels undeniably truthful. Listen as she shares her future projects: tuning into her intuition and continuing to follow her heart, undoubtedly reflecting her relationship with the planet and following the light. Inquiries about loaning opportunities can be made through . Follow her on Instagram: @aprilsurgent. Highlights you will love: Learn about her remote research expeditions as diverse as Antarctica to Hawaii.

Mary is not just a sculptor and educator; she’s a visionary leader who uplifts the voices of women in environmental art and education, empowering them to make waves and create meaningful change. I’ll leave her website information in the notes—it’s truly inspirational. I am most intrigued by Mary as an artmaker. To me, Mary works collaboratively, but she never negotiates her values, holding steadfast to what matters most in every project she undertakes.

She seems to know everyone, and now I am pleased to introduce you to this amazing ecofeminist.

As Above So Below with Robin Lasser
Join us as we welcome Robin Lasser, a natural-born storyteller and ecofeminist who has carved a unique path throughout her art-making career. In this episode, we traverse her journey, from her latest exhibit, Climate’s Shipwreck Ballad, currently on view at the Plattsburgh State Art Museum, to her earliest creations. Tune in to discover how the spiritual philosophy of As Above, So Below shows up repeatedly in her oeuvre. Robin is not an artist who works alone; she collaborates with artists, writers, students, public agencies, community organizations, and international coalitions to produce public art and promote dialogue. Robin’s work serves as a form of activism, addressing climate justice while commenting on public health, environmental issues, and social equity, helping to rewrite history with honesty. Her art-making approach often integrates layers of textures, colors, elements of fire and water, humor, and research, showcasing the power of art as a vital communication tool. Her recent exhibit, Climate’s Shipwreck Ballad, provides insights into Lake Champlain, exploring migration lines, 300 species of birds, 300 shipwrecks beneath its surface, and how the waters' currents served as a gateway to freedom. In this conversation, Robin shares her creative process, highlighting how she combines layers of photographs and videos to create site-specific installations and public art that engage with themes of placemaking. Her Dress Tent Series adds a layer of humor and wit, as she explains, “Through the humor of an oversized dress, we reference specific body and land topics pertaining to the place and culture where they are located. By exploring these two symbols of shelter, we delve into themes of protection versus oppression, expression versus exploitation, sexy versus matronly, and more.” While Robin is constantly creating, she is also a professor of Art at San José State University. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including venues such as the San Francisco Asian Art Museum, San José Museum of Art, National Gallery of Modern Art in Bangalore, India, the Museum of Goa, Exploratorium Observation Gallery in San Francisco, Kohler Museum of Art, The Metenkov Museum of Photography in Yekaterinburg, Russia, the Recoleta Cultural Center in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the Caixa Cultural Center in Rio de Janeiro. She also participates in international biennials, including ZERO1: Global Art on the Edge in San José, California, Nuit Blanche in Toronto, Canada, and the Pingyao International Photography Festival in Pingyao, China.
