Kinder People, Kindest People – Hedy Pagremanski (Part 2)
In this deeply insightful episode of Kinder People, Kindest People on hmTv, host Peter Suchmann continues his conversation with renowned artist Hedy Pagremanski. The discussion begins with the Yiddish concept of Basherte—the idea that certain encounters and relationships are meant to be. Hedy reflects on the serendipitous events that led her to Peter, the Kindertransport community, and her lifelong journey of capturing humanity through art.
Hedy shares the fascinating story behind her Wall Street paintings, a commissioned series featuring real people who bought prints and became part of the artwork. She explains how she perceives the world in curves rather than rigid lines, reflecting the human essence in her detailed cityscapes. The episode also explores her celebrated painting of the Long Beach boardwalk, which includes portraits of people who have impacted her life—both human and animal.
A conversation about meditation and the universe reveals Hedy’s belief that love, memory, and human connections never truly disappear, but rather, expand infinitely. Her reflections on kindness, loss, and legacy make for an inspiring listen, reminding us that we are all ripple-makers, shaping the world with our actions and stories.
Tune in for a moving discussion on art, humanity, and the interconnectedness of all things.
