Lorna and I go back many years from our time in New York. I sat for a chat with her and co-founder, Rachael McNabb to talk about New Public, the cultural placemaking and public art agency they launched together in London in 2023. Turns out it’s a lot more than you’d expect from an art agency. They are women-owned and operated and strive for something deeper than simply winning a bid — they are on a mission to affect cultures at the root level through a full range of creative mediums. 

I was introduced to the lovely Yi Ting through a close friend. Yi Ting is an editorial assistant at Burlington Contemporary. She sat for a coffee with me and we covered her background, her work at Burlington Contemporary, and her thoughts on the contemporary art scene in London.
