In this Episode

In this week’s podcast, I got to thinking about how creativity works in our lives. It is important to consider how creativity manifests itself in your everyday life. For myself, I find that when my creativity is low it is because I haven’t created the necessary space to allow the creativity to emerge. In my own work, I have found that simple is always more. Getting more and more complicated in my work often leads to less creativity. I have also found that when my places of creativity are in disarray that my work is also in disarray. After listening to the podcast, I encourage you to think about your own creativity and how the spaces and places you feel most creative are pull together. Do you need clear and clean environments or the hustle and flow of a busy city? Does your desk need to be clean or messy? If you find that your creativity is off, I encourage you to look at what is filing your spaces with junk, noise and pollution and to do what you can to remove it. Find your simple, clean creative space.

In conversation with Jenny Hansen Das

Mar 5, 2026 |

n this episode, I’m joined by Seattle-based fine art photographer Jenny Hansen Das for a conversation about exceptions in photography and working with galleries. Jenny’s work blends analog and digital processes, with a focus on everyday moments presented in unexpected ways. She experiments with alternative techniques like cyanotypes and image transfers, creating handcrafted, one-of-a-kind pieces. She’s also the founder of The Seattle Light Room, a community darkroom and gallery in Seattle’s Seward Park neighborhood. Explore her portfolio at jennyhansendas.com, find her community darkroom at theseattlelightroom.com, and follow her on Instagram at @jennyhansendas and @theseattlelightroom.
