The Playing Possum Podcast
Playing Possum Collective is the brain-child of three queer-identified visual artists, Kacey Montgomery, a photographer and multimedia artist, Katherine Edmonds, a woodworker, designer, and educator, and Jamey Hudnall, a painter. The collective’s name comes from the phrase “playing possum,” which echoes our mission statement: Helping creatives be creative when you feel like playing dead. Specifically, the phrase means to pretend to be asleep or deceased when threatened, and at times, as creatives, we desire to hide our work and ourselves, to not be seen by the world out of fear and anxiety. This reflex to creative output creates roadblocks that inhibit production, connection, success, and general well-being. The three of us have bonded over this universal struggle and desire to develop a space of support and conversation to discuss these struggles openly with other creatives. As visual artists, we know how important it is to tell your story and share your work, and we believe that in supporting others, this project will also help us avoid playing dead and continue working to share our own stories.
