For the latest SWH! Podcast Ali spoke to singer and songmaker Kirsty Law about her latest project, Helm Arts – the multi-disciplinary production company and artist support service.
The two talk about the ethos and ideas behind Helm, and the need to support, advise, and offer help to artists of all kinds.
Kirsty relates Helm Arts to experiences in her own career, including the numerous collaborations, multi-disciplinary events, and other projects with which she has been involved over the years whether as producer, curator, or artist – sometimes all three.
It’s a fascinating insight into a life lived in the arts, a role which is vital to the well-being of any culture and its people.
