In this episode of NeedleXChange we interview Joetta Maue.

Joetta is a curator, artist and teacher whose embroidered work focuses on liminal moments - the in-between spaces that contain magic if we take time to notice them. I’ve known Joetta for over a decade, but this was the first time we’d spoken to each other, and we have a great chat about how parenthood influences her creative approach, what she learns from teaching young people to evolve their art, and how she gets inspired by minutiae.

As always, you’ll be able to enjoy Joetta’s work over on our YouTube, and you can connect with her using the links in the show notes. If this NeedleXChange inspired you, it would be great to hear from you - email hello@needl.exchange - and if you could leave us a review on your favourite podcast platform, that will help spread word of what we’re doing!

Enjoy the show!
