hell i'll too hide away for +6 years if someone I lived with and was as resentful and wild as the person narrating was making AUDIO CASSETTES for museums about me and my work while speaking EXTREMELY personally abt me and my personal life like almost every 2 years. shit's wild
Ahhhh this series is so well written! The more I think on it, the more I'm in awe. With the way that they tore Claudia away from her family, and then completely wiped her native country off the face of the map, and didn't even do her the courtesy of making her forget it all - of course she resents The Society. It's taken away everything she's ever loved. And, ironically, it's from this taking that she becomes a dissenter, the very thing that they're trying to pinch out. AND THEN I think about the significance of Hester loving Roimata Mangakahia's paintings above all else, and Roimata's own seemingly dubious allegiance to The Society, and empathy towards its dissenters - of COURSE, years into the future, last season's narrator would have found a painter with that kind of history, and be drawn to her above all the other artists' she's studied (including, one presumes, Claudia herself). I just - this is SO well written and thought out, ahhhhh, my brain is having a field day tracing all the ways seasons 1 and 2 weave in and around each other.
I feel like there's some relationship between things being taken from her and her plagiarizing others' work. You could almost say it's intentional commentary on her part, because... Well, it's not like she does much to hide it. I mean, she does it all the time to people she's close to; she had to know word would get out.
I like the idea that there are some really obvious clues in the drawings and everyone is too pretenscious/unintelligent to notice it. Like there's red writing in the corner explaining the entire plot
podcast AREN'T so popular where I live, I was thinking few days ago that maybe it's impossible to find a friend who enjoy them. It's cool to see that my country is named on one of my most favorite podcast!
I think Claudia is alive but is held against her will by someone... how who is obsessed with her... someone who is extremely possessive and jealous at the same time... someone like Roimata Mangakāhia.
Notice how Roimata is the one who keeps all the leads about what might have happened to Claudia. First, she was trying to make us believe that the artist most only went away on her own, then she pointed finger at Claudia's ex-lover, later she mentioned an artist from whom Claudia might have stolen an idea for a painting, this weeks episode she's trowing suspicions at yet another person, while making subtle references to shadowy organization that is said to kidnap people. She just keeps giving us different suspects and excuses. Why? Is she trying to draw away our attention from something... or someone?
I feel like Roimata is bringing up multiple people throughout the series to outline that there is more than one suspect. She is also pointing out that Claudia is not perfect - no she is calling out Claudia for problematic behaviour in many cases - and perhaps that might have to do with her disappearance? She wants to explain but she is under scrutiny from the society I believe. She asks the listener questions to try and make us figure it out for ourselves. Not sure if I'm right or where any of this may lead but it's so much fun to theorise a bit.
Claudia is infuriating me more and more?? Plagiarism is like, a no go. / The story is so captivating and interesting, and I'm so interested how this will turn out. Good work!!
Claudia made the sketch of artists working literally while they were working. So the painting that Wynn is working on in the sketch is literally the painting Claudia copied

Like, just two episodes ago I was SUUURE, she was being held captive by Pavel Zubov... but now, I think they're in it together, maybe.

That would be quite a twist. But would really no one recognize her voice?

Honestly their relationship reminds me of Pearl and Rose
Claudia is infuriating me more and more?? Plagiarism is like, a no go.

I don't think she ever meant these paintings to be found, though. It is common to practice skills by copying others.
Claudia made the sketch of artists working literally while they were working. So the painting that Wynn is working on in the sketch is literally the painting Claudia copied
“early study”
