The 80% with Esther O'Moore Donohoe

Show Notes

This episode was recorded in 2019 and re-edited in 2026.

Geraldine Carton is now a contemporary artist known for her expressive figurative and portrait work in oils. She explores themes of human connection, vulnerability and social identity but when I spoke to her in 2019 she was in a very different space. At the time Geraldine was working with Taz Kellehar on The Useless Project having pivoted previously from social work and writing.

This conversation will be inspiring to anyone who feels stuck or feels like they’re searching for new horizons. What I love and admire about Geraldine is her fearlessness in changing her mind.

Reinvent yourself.

Peace and love,
