Our theme this month is the exploration of self through the creation of fictional personas.  We spoke with Mae Elvis Kaufman, a New York-based performer and photographer, about her creative process, the origins and evolving motivations behind her art, and fruit roll-ups.  See Mae's shapeshifting characters come to life on Instagram at @maeelvis. 

This episode features music from Princess Nokia, Grace Jones, Nite Jewel, Jenny Hval, Circuit des Yeux, and more. 

Woman's Work is a monthly podcast about women doin' stuff. We highlight music and other creative work made by women. Co-hosted by Grace Woodard and Valentine Ubaldo. Find us on Twitter and Instagram at @womanswerk.
