THE LESTER PRIZE | ILLUMINE_ALUMNI COLLECTION
Shining a light on our celebrated finalists: we explore what motivates them to make art, the stories they tell and the themes they pursue.

Ep 05
Artist Name: Natasha Ber
Finalist: 2019
Artist quote: “I paint because I want to—and I need to. It's part of the way I communicate my thoughts. I can't speak while I paint, so it leads me to believe painting is the way to say something without actually saying it. To be honest, I’ve never liked words anyway!”
