Shownotes

On this episode, we are joined by John Powers, a sculptor whose work depends on his hands to transform ideas into something tangible. After an injury resulted in the loss of his thumb and ring finger, John faced a profound change, not only in how he used his hand, but in how he approached his work and his identity as an artist. John shares with us his story of injury, adaptation and finding new ways to create.

Guest Bio: John Powers is a sculptor. He lives and works in New York.
