About

Stories of the brilliant and flawed. Brilliant artists, flawed humans and complex works. Many people believe people are either ‘good’ or ‘bad’. That’s not me. I believe everyone has the capacity for both, and my mission is to explore artists - and their dark sides - honestly. I believe doing so helps us become kinder, more understanding and forgiving of others. Every video you see here ends positively — and even the darkest contain beauty and redemption. If this resonates with you, you’re in the right place! * Business: [email protected]

It's also one of the darkest. This video explores its dark origins. The book was partly inspired by Samuel Chamberlain's 'My Confessions', an account of the real life Glanton Gang, and this video includes excerpts of both.
