The podcast of Yellow Brick is a series of interviews about art and sustainability with children, teenagers and professionals who work in the field of art, education and mental health. The soundtracks are made with sounds from the landscape of Athens. Children and teenagers were mainly asked about their relationship with art and their personal approach to artistic practice. Professionals from the broader artistic field were asked specific questions that explore the definition of sustainability in relation to art and education. Moreover, they describe the projects that they design in their institution, which relate to the aforementioned connection.
