Hormazd Narielwalla

Season 3 · Episode 3

Wednesday, July 3, 2024 • Duration 24:50

In today's episode, Maeve speaks to multi-disciplinary artist Hormazd Nariewalla. This is an invigorating conversation that takes place at the home of the permanent collection of his work, JP Hackett on Savile Row. Born in India, Nariewalla's work is a mix of collage, print-making and sculpture which originate on the surfaces of antique, vintage, and bespoke tailoring patterns. For this year's Art In Mayfair, Hormazd has extended his residency at Hackett’s Savile Row and has filled the atelier with colourful homages to tailoring. In this conversation we hear about his strong work ethic, the spiritual connection between clothes and their wearers, and the powerful advice given to him by Sir Paul Smith.

Pieter Obels

Season 3 · Episode 2

Friday, June 21, 2024 • Duration 11:29

Today, Maeve speaks to sculptor Pieter Obels. Despite working with Corten steel, Pieter's work seem light and gravity defying. His contribution to this year's Sculpture Trail, titled 'How Soon Is Now' and presented by Opera Gallery, barely seems to touch the ground while it's striking orange hues are set perfectly against the green backdrop of Berkeley Square. In this episode we hear about Pieter's working practice, his inspirations as an artist, and the joy and playfulness that public art can bring.

Saturday, June 15, 2024 • Duration 25:02

The Art in Mayfair podcast returns for 2024 and in this episode Maeve Doyle speaks to Gavin Turk.

Johnny Hawkes

Season 2 · Episode 4

Tuesday, July 11, 2023 • Duration 18:18

In this episode of Art In Mayfair 2023, host Maeve Doyle speaks to self-taught artist and sculptor, and renowned modern furniture maker, Johnny Hawkes. Johnny’s piece, Sphelix is part of the Mayfair Sculpture Trail and is outside Fenwick’s. At the start of 2023, Hawkes began developing his sculpture “SPHELIX” on a monumental scale which he says is the perfect shape, organic in cure and industrial in form: Sphelix has been an obsession of his for half of his lifetime. The Sphelix is a new shape, the joining of a sphere and a helix, a new global shape and a symbol for anti-racism, the joining of communities. We cover a lot in this episode including Johnny’s love of wood, his brief stint at art school and other artists whose work he admires. He also shares his inspirations, his process of work, how he makes sense of his ideas and puts them into a physicality.

Dario Vargas

Season 2 · Episode 3

Tuesday, July 11, 2023 • Duration 13:32

In this episode host Maeve Doyle speaks to Dario Vargas. Dario is a Colombian-born contemporary fine artist whose work is currently on show in the Luxury Italian menswear brand, Canali, New Bond Street Dario’s work draws influence from the Renaissance and Baroque periods to cast a connection with our behaviour and psychology in the modern world. We hear how Dario knew he always wanted to be an artist from a young age, how the church was his source of inspiration in his small town in Colombia and how he moved from the world of advertising to art full time when he moved to London. Dario shares his early years experiences of being a full time artist and how mental health and depression played a part in his journey, the lessons he learnt during this period of his life and how he shares those learnings with others using his art. Spirituality and teaching play are a big part of Dario’s process, and we hear how the two-way relationship means he learns from the students and vice versa.

David Breuer Weil

Season 1 · Episode 4

Thursday, July 14, 2022 • Duration 18:38

“Ground control to Major Tom, commencing countdown engines on, detach from station and may God's love be with you” - both film director Nick Roeg’s cult classic ‘The Man Who Fell to Earth’ and many of David Bowies lyrics emote a similar reaction to that of Breuer-Weil’s most powerful works, ‘Visitor I’ and ‘Visitor V’ recently installed in Berkeley Square.

Sitting on one of the parks many benches and listening to the esoteric philosophical debate that fuel the artists practice, his notebooks crammed with pencil sketches and diagrams still fresh in my mind, I mused that if last glimpse of the world was that of ‘Mayfair Sculpture Trail’s’ two visitor’s then the narrative must surely be “the planet Earth is blue and there’s nothing left to do..” D. Bowie

A really great episode, listen to it in full now.

David Begbie

Season 1 · Episode 3

Thursday, July 14, 2022 • Duration 28:45

Another episode of Art in Mayfair hosted by art critic, Maeve Doyle.

Maeve says: "I started the episode by asking David “how he was” and the conversation flowed effortlessly from that point. The otherworldly artist and 1982 graduate of the Slade School of Art was present at and bore witness to 40 years on the London art scene.

Begbie’s cultural references draw from the past - his heroes on Cork Street in its heyday, collaborating with fashion houses (Christian Dior) dance companies and tailors like Richard James. This conversation whilst steeped in nostalgia remained sharply focused on the future and everything new!

Begbie’s steel mesh sculptures that form part of The Mayfair Sculpture Trail appear to defy gravity. Walking by them on several occasions since, I expected to see them floating ethereally above the streets surface."

An episode not to be missed!

Rhys Coren

Season 1 · Episode 2

Thursday, July 14, 2022 • Duration 22:01

Maeve says, "I met with Rhys Coren in the new Medici Courtyard on a Monday morning to talk about ‘Everyone I’ve Ever Known’ - a 30 ft mural that took over three years to complete.

The conversation started with Plymouth, his birthplace, and his time at art school, the several attempts to get into the esteemed RA program and his eventual acceptance and what it is like to be part of an artistic community. Looking at the mural with Coren was like listening to a memoir being read out aloud, the shapes holding endless hidden meanings and influences, ranging from Grace Jones to environmental issues, a dance to the music of time captured in 30 ft of terrazzo."

A fantastic conversation with Rhys, an episode not to be missed!
