Phill Jupitus on Art School, Scotland and Changing Lanes Later in Life


You may be surprised to hear that stand-up comedian, spoken-word poet and television personality extraordinaire, Phill Jupitus, has just completed his foundation year at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design (DJCAD) in Dundee. But that just happens to be the case! Arts & Music Editor Iona Lee talked to Phill about his recent artistic ventures, his love of collage and the Kingdom of Fife… and you can listen to that right here :
I’m *so* glad you shared his artwork. I knew he was at college; I saw him in conversation with someone (David Mach??) at the National Gallery last year when he mentioned it.
Good stuff. Thank you
And thank you Iona for a great interview. Really interesting
That was an interesting discussion.
I’ve been following Phill’s art on Instagram for some time. The imagery and text in his collages are always of interest, it’s a fascinating medium.
Great to hear he’s a fan of Ray Johnson and mail art too. How To Draw A Bunny is definitely worth a watch.
Thanks for this. Really entertaining. I’ve just finished 4 years doing fine art at DJCAD, I’m the same age as Phil and actually pretty much had an identical foundation year experience. Good luck with the next three years…
Enjoyed this… thanks!
Good interview. Entertaining & real. Worth a listen if you are swithering.
