004 - Finding Home Within (feat. Judas Mordache)

January 23, 2023 • VENUS BLEEDS • Season 1 • Episode 4

Sometimes migrating to an entirely new environment as an artist can be paralyzing. I sit with Judas, a creative director and designer based in Paris, to discuss what it feels like to leave home and find a new sanctuary to build. What is home away from home? How intrusive do we have to be to achieve maximum opportunity? Will I be considered a sell-out if I compromise pride to open every door offered to me? Will changing career location affect mental health? What about feelings of doubt, entrapment and inferiority, will these go away once an artist moves to a new city? Perhaps the only way to find home everywhere we go is to stop outsourcing its search and start building it from within.
