"At the Studio Richter Mahr, we're trying to make it as 360 degrees as possible. So the center of the building is a cafe, and that cafe is fueled, if you like, from the organic garden. So there are no food miles. We grow everything. The electricity comes from the solar on the roof. The building itself was upcycled from a big old tractor shed. And we took the insides out and put new insides in, which are all the studios. It's a project which really is the outcome of an idealistic vision of how creativity can coexist with the broader community, but it's something that Yulia and I passionately believe in. We believe in the possibility of creative work having an elevating effect in society more broadly. It's a challenging time, I feel like the next half a dozen decades maybe are the kind of pinch point where things can either start to get better or a lot worse. And that's to do with large-scale ideas about what society is and what it should do. And how we distribute wealth, power, opportunity, education, and creativity. And creative work, I think, can be a catalyst that can help us to see bigger contexts, and engage with deeper meanings. And these are all ways to figure out what's important and what isn't important."
