#018 A Conversation with Ed Kluz - Painter, Designer and Illustrator

Welcome to the Inside Yorkshire Podcast, a podcast full of stories and tales from the people of Yorkshire.

Key Takeaways:

So many of our great buildings have been lost, yet still many survive. Ed seeks the standing and the fallen and in turn aims to create images which look at the very fabric of our identity.
"I am fascinated by the past. Our architectural heritage is a huge source of inspiration for me. The great edifices of the realm, past and present, have always conveyed a sense of power, which fails to dwindle with the passing centuries. Even the overgrown foundations of a long demolished country house hold a melancholic power, as does the shattered body of a great abbey"
