As our journey through intimacy draws to a close, it’s time to look inward and reflect on how we can get closer to ourselves. We’re considering ideas of self-knowledge and self-love, alongside what it means to draw on your own life and experiences in a creative practice.
What do artists who bring personal and intimate narratives into their work encounter? How can we open up to our vulnerability and decide when to safely share that with others? And could these acts bring us closer together – perhaps helping us build a deeper and more compassionate connection with both self and others?
Featuring an interview with Olivia Laing, an original sound work by Axel Kacoutié, audio excerpts from Agnès Varda and Luchita Hurtado from the Serpentine archive, and Serpentine Artistic Director Hans Ulrich Obrist in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

ABOUT INTIMACIES
Serpentine Podcast: Intimacies explores the complexities of closeness, and asks how we can expand and evolve our intimacy with others, ourselves, and the world around us. Join our host, Gaylene Gould, as she gathers perspectives from artists, designers, writers, thinkers, and more on how we can rekindle trust, and open ourselves up to new possibilities for connection.
Confronting the slippery topics of fear, vulnerability, sex, love and loneliness in art and life, the Intimacies series delves into the feelings and experiences which we don’t always voice – from our relationships with family or strangers, to the things we fear most and our deepest desires, to our surroundings and our innermost selves. Each episode combines interviews, original audio works, conversations, and pieces from the Serpentine archive. This series itself is personal, emotional, reflective, and an exploration of vulnerability in many ways.

This episode opens up to consider intimacy with the world around us. Today, many of us feel – and are – disconnected from place, and not everyone feels equally at home in the spaces we move through. Ranging from urban and built environments to social and digital worlds, this episode asks what we need to be able to feel comfortable and intimate with our surroundings.
How are artists challenging and working with different forms of space and place? And what happens when we can reconnect with the elements, environments, people, and other beings around us?
Featuring an interview with 2023 Serpentine Pavilion architect Lina Gotmeh, an original sound work by Black Power Naps, an audio excerpt from a project by Jakob Kudsk Steensen from the Serpentine archive, and Serpentine curator Kay Watson in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

We now move from a space of fear into desire – asking how art can be a space to express, explore and experience the supposedly private sphere of sexuality.
In our desires, what is the interplay between distance and closeness? How do attraction and obsession intersect with other aspects of our lives? What happens when intimate pleasures and partnerships inform art-making – and when that work is brought before a public?
Featuring an original sound work by Pixy Liao, an interview with Tiona Nekkia McClodden, an unpublished sex column reading by Brontez Purnell, and Serpentine curator Hanna Girma in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

Sometimes the things we fear live as intimately within us as the things we love. These fears are rarely distant from us: we are sometimes closely implicated in them, and fear is a visceral, personal experience. Fear and anxiety can be irrational, or rooted in realities that threaten us unevenly.
When can we transform our phobia into an embrace? How do we find ways to live alongside the threats of the world? And how are artists working closely – and in nuanced ways – with the instinctive feeling of fear?
Featuring an interview with Webs of Life artist Tomás Saraceno, an original sound work by Lamin Fofana, a reading by P. Staff from the Serpentine archive, and Serpentine curator Claude Adjil in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

Following strangers, we turn to the people our lives are first entangled with: our families. Family is a contested and challenging space for some, while being a place where others find sanctuary, safety, and profound relationships. This episode considers different expectations and realities of love, care and identity within biological and chosen families, and asks how we intentionally nurture, negotiate and shift our family relationships.
How and why do artists involve their family members and homes in their work – and what do they need to take into consideration when bringing this to an audience?
Featuring an original sound work by Angelo Madsen Minax, an interview with Hetain Patel, audio excerpts from projects led by Helen Cammock and Rehana Zaman from the Serpentine archive, and Serpentine curator Lizzie Graham in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

We start our journey into intimacy by considering our interactions with strangers. The unexpected crossing of paths between people who have no knowledge of each other can be emotionally impactful, whether these moments leave us unsettled, or uplifted by a sense of hope and connection.
What forms of proximity arise between strangers in public spaces? How and why do artists make work which invites new encounters between themselves and audience members? What possibilities and risks emerge when they do?
Featuring a conversation with Adrian Piper, an interview with Scottee, a performance by Cecilia Vicuña from the Serpentine archive, and Serpentine curator Tamsin Hong in conversation with Gaylene Gould.

TRANSCRIPT
[curious, warm, ambient tones]
Ident: Serpentine Podcast: Intimacies (echoes).
Gaylene Gould: What does intimacy mean to you?
[slow, thoughtful ambient music continues under voices]
Tiona Nekkia McClodden: I think of intimacy generally as the things that I know about myself that other people don't know.
Adrian Piper [voice actor with effects]: A meeting of minds.
Tomás Saraceno: Sometimes it's so precious that you're afraid to share it and you want to keep it as your last resource because you're afraid to be too vulnerable. It's important to share that, let's not be afraid.
Gaylene Gould: How can we expand and evolve our intimacy with ourselves, others, and the world around us?
[birdsong alongside music]
Olivia Laing: Intimacy requires risking something of your own ugliness, your own sort of less flattering angles. You can't get intimate when you are trying to present an armour.
Gaylene Gould: I’m Gaylene Gould, an artist, and explorer of ideas. I host Serpentine Podcast, and in our new series we are exploring the complexities of closeness. Last series, we were reimagining the world, and it's now time to look within ourselves, and our relationships with those around us. Getting up close, personal and raw.
Scottee: If I spot something in somebody that I feel is close to me, I feel like I understand you, or we might understand each other. I think you start to find parallels between people that maybe are slightly abstract from your own, but you can see a gauze through the world in a similar way.
Gaylene Gould: I feel my sense of intimacy has been disrupted in recent times. So, I want to challenge myself to connect with more courage and ask braver questions. That’s what this series represents. We’ll be interrogating intimacy in unexpected ways. From our relationships with family or strangers, the things we fear most and our deepest desires, to the way our surroundings influence our intimacy, and of course, intimacy with our innermost selves.
Hetain Patel: It was kind of a mind-blowing experience, you know? It was very emotional, probably for all of us, for me and my family. I don't think it's an understatement to say it changed our relationship and things changed from there.
[sounds of a surrounding park]
Lina Ghotmeh: There's this moment of peacefulness, actually, where you're really in a timeless kind of bubble or environment. And there's a lot of wonder and, and intimacy, actually, because you feel how belonging we are to nature, to Earth, in a way…
[running water]
Pixy Liao: We are creating a world just for the two of us. A place we can always go back to that is safe and warm. A cult with only two members…
[music returns to curious, ambient tones]
Gaylene Gould: Each episode we’ll be untangling webs of intimacies through interviews with artists, writers and thinkers. We’ll be featuring new sound work, as well as diving into Serpentine’s huge archive of past programmes.
You can find Serpentine Podcast, Intimacies, on any podcast platform weekly, starting on Tuesday 22nd of August.

Transcript:
Gaylene Gould: Right now, it feels like the old world is crumbling [echoes]. We're kind of teetering on the edge of a new one, but if we're gonna sidestep the problems that have played us so far, we are gonna need new tools, new ways to be together, to live new, and to connect [echoes].
Tai Shani: Any of the things that do have that idea in them of like what the world could be [are like] casting a stone into darkness, but that stone gets met at some point? Or, that's the hope, isn't it?
Zing Tsjeng: What if we just thought a little bit bigger here, and we came up with an alternative view of the future and what it could be like.
Gaylene Gould: What is a world and how do we begin to reshape it? What role can artists play in this? These are the questions we'll be exploring in REWORLDING, a new Serpentine Podcast series hosted by me, Gaylene Gould.
Irenosen Okojie: You can create worlds that people don't recognise. You can create worlds that feel familiar, but suddenly you take somebody somewhere completely new and recalibrate a universe. [echoes]
Gaylene Gould: The Serpentine program is all about exploring art and ideas for a changing world, and I've been working with the team to hunt for tools that will help us fashion a more expansive, compassionate and resilient world.
Samson Kambalu: For me, remembering is almost like a creative exercise, you know, to try to get back to the present moment by the way of the past,
Declan Rowe John: Art is like a way to portray your message to the world and kind of bring people together and show that they aren't alone.
Gaylene Gould: Throughout this series, I'll be speaking to leading artists, designers, writers, and thinkers. We'll be hearing new sound art as well as diving back into Serpentine's vast archive to try and answer some of these questions.
Performer from Tai Shani's work: I pray you can survive this and live forever
Gaylene Gould: In REWORLDING, we'll be dreaming, listening, playing, remembering, and connecting in radical new ways. We'll be traveling together through gardens and game worlds, inner states and outer space, and I cannot wait to share the journey with you. Our first episode drops in January, 2023, so subscribe to Serpentine Podcast now and start your year by reworlding with us.

How can gaming and virtual world-building help us design better cultural architecture and infrastructures? What does the metaverse show us about community building and the co-creation of experience? And what do ‘antecedent’ technologies have to show us about creating ethical frameworks? Taking an intergenerational view, we join Native American artist and technologist Amelia Winger-Bearskin and Andie Nordgren, of popular MMORPG Eve Online and Director of Live Platforms for Unity to find ways through the hidden architectures and decentralised ethics of the metaverse and its precedents.
Playtesting is presented by Tamar Clarke-Brown, Serpentine Arts Technologies and produced in collaboration with Sasha Edye-Lindner from Reduced Listening.
Additional sound design by Alx Suutoo Dabo.
