The Print Lab Podcast

The Print Lab Podcast on Spotify, hosted by Martha Ackroyd Curtis, features interviews with print-based media artists, including photographers, installation artists, and creatives who merge traditional printmaking techniques with contemporary photography.

It also documents Martha’s personal journey through the city in 2024, exploring and reflecting on its artists, architecture, historical landmarks, and personal anecdotes. The episode includes a feature on her Times Square Subway screen artwork, created for NYC x DESIGN.
