The Healthy Artist | Art and Burnout: w/ Damaris Athene

This week we had the chance to talk online with artist Damaris Athene, on the verge of her first major London commercial solo exhibition. We talked with Damaris about her recent successes and opportunities that have come out of committing an intense amount of time to her practice, but also the other side of success - how running on the treadmill of the art world has caused burn out, unhealthy practices and losing sight of what its all about. This was a real honest interview and we hope it resonates with you all. D+M
