bLine #4: Representation in the Arts
Tuesday, September 9, 2025
This episode of bLine looks at the importance of representation in the arts. As an audience member, I’m constantly searching for people like me in all the art I consume. There's something really special about identifying with a character in a movie or hearing someone sing about experiences that you’ve had. For those from marginalised and minority backgrounds, however, representation can be hard to come by.
In this week’s episode of bLine, we spoke to art director and founder of BEINGS.co, Leon Bristow, musician and presenter of Little Gay In, Jason Parker, and artist and project manager for Arts Makers Aotearoa, Claudia Jowitt.
Happy listening!
