Otis Blease: Voices in Drawing - a podcast by Fen Ditton Gallery

Welcome back to the Fen Ditton Gallery podcast, with me, Hannah Munby. This episode features a recent conversation with Otis Blease, who is one of three recent graduates from Royal Drawing School that will be exhibited in our Voices in Drawing exhibition this autumn.

Otis completed a Drawing and Printmaking degree at Bristol UWE, before going on to study on the prestigious Drawing Year at the Royal Drawing School. Having grown up in rural Cornwall and, on moving to Bristol and then London to study, he says he finally found the context for the energetic lines that had begun to emerge in his work.

This conversation explores Otis’ inspirations and motivations behind his work, how he coped being flung back into rural life during the pandemic and what’s next for this young emerging artist.

I hope you enjoy this conversation and do visit the Voices in Drawing exhibition, in person or online at fendittongallery.com between the 10th - 26th September 2021.
