In this episode of Chats & Tracks, Carrie Mae Weems joins us as a guest. In conversation with Leonie Möhring of ByteFM, she reflects on more than four decades of artistic practice on the occasion of her exhibition The Heart of the Matter at C/O Berlin, speaking about representation, memory, and the power of images. She also talks about her beginnings in photography, her relationship with Berlin, and the important role music plays in her life and work.
