Through their practice they explore ideas of self-determination, religion and spirituality at the intersection of education, using their role as a teacher to re-imagine Western pedagogy. Exodus has previously exhibited with Iniva, Ikon Gallery and the National Gallery, among others. Today they’ll be joining me to discuss their experience as both an educator and former student, and how we can transform the art curriculum within the classroom. </p><p><br></p><p><a href=\"https://open.acast.com/networks/62874943e07ce2001210db55/shows/62874922a6361b1a8d8dddba/episodes/Freelands%20Foundation\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Freelands Foundation</strong></a> works to broaden access to art education and the visual arts across the UK.
