Can art be separated from the artist?

Cover Art for Indestructible, a podcast produced by Creative Kin for Proteus Theatre Company

How do you approach artworks you love after you discover the artist has behaved reprehensibly, abominably, illegally?

Indestructible explores these questions with artists, actors, curators and directors.

Across seven episodes the podcast examines the challenges of building a career in the theatre industry, and champions creative women from a range of disciplines whose work may not have enjoyed the exposure it deserves.

Commissioned by Proteus Theatre Company, the Indestructible podcast partners the stage play of the same name written and directed by Proteus Artistic Director Mary Swan.
