Censorship Creative Death?

Art that's provocative and compelling to some and offensive to others, might be banned, excluded, or even altered. But is censorship fuel for creativity or a death star?

Rohena Alam Khan, who describes herself as a modern Bangladeshi, is no stranger to controversy and censorship. Some of her most striking artwork has managed to inspire and offend while evoking a strong sense of wonderment in the viewer. In this 1-hour Artists Up Close podcast interview, Khan shares her experiences and insights on how censorship has impacted her creative process and her relationship to the broader creative community. Don’t miss this powerful conversation.
