Cultural Lens Shapeshifter with Jill Mott
Jill Mott is a “cultural lens shapeshifter,” photographer, and photojournalist who brings a unique, sparkling energy to everything she does. Armed with only her camera and imagination, she once traveled the world from England to Zimbabwe… with a stop in Italy for art school!
Today, Jill teaches and shares her understanding of communication and storytelling — across a myriad of forms — particularly with the camera. Jill lives in beautiful Fort Collins, Colorado with her husband and family. Her work has been recognized by the National Press Photographers Association. She’s exhibited her work in solo shows and group exhibitions around the country.
Listen to this episode and join us as we discuss:
• A love of African masks and how Zimbabwe has shaped (and continues to shape) Jill’s work
• The relationship of art and storytelling
• Why good feedback is critical to growth as an artist
• Jill’s charitable collaboration with the Fort Collins Museum of Art in Colorado and teaching experiences
• Plus, how she met her husband and how they chose their son’s distinctive name
