• 10. Horacio Silva Duarte Sobre La Historia Del Graffiti En la Región de Valparaíso, Chile
    Jun 7 2022
    Hoy en el podcast tenemos a Horacio Silva Duarte. Horacio es un graffitero chileno de los 90 que se volvió productor de murales en los años 2000. Es fundador de la famosa y estimada ONG, Valparaíso en Colores, que aporta a la sociedad llevando proyectos de arte urbano a los barrios de Chile y a su vez dándole trabajo a los artistas. En esta entrevista con Horacio, él comparte información privilegiada y muy poco conocida sobre la historia del graffiti en Chile – es información que no está publicada en ningún libro de graffiti, en ninguna otra parte! Es realmente fascinante y sé que te va a encantar. Horacio también comenta el rol que el graffiti ha jugado en el desarrollo del arte urbano, o street art, en el mundo. Y por supuesto, Horacio explica como ha sido su propio trayecto en el arte urbano, desde sus graffitis en los años 90 hasta su trabajo de productor en el Valparaíso en Colores de hoy.

  • 9. Gary Drostle on Smashing Tiles – Part 2
    May 25 2022
    Today we have the incredible artist, Gary Drostle, back on the podcast. Back in February, I had the pleasure of interviewing Gary. The episode with the first half of our conversation dropped on Monday. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet, definitely go back and do that now, because it was so much fun and it really informs the rest of the conversation that you’ll get to listen to today. In the last episode, we talked about Gary’s beginnings as a muralist and mosaic artist, where Gary gets his artistic inspiration, and the stories behind two of Gary’s major works – a floor mosaic at a hospital and a public mosaic sculpture. In this episode, the second half of our conversation, we go into more of Gary’s most satisfying moments in his career so far, including a couple of mosaics for the University of Iowa, and a collaborative community project in Colombia. Gary also generously shares his daily work routine, how he organizes his studio workflow, and how he gets most of his projects. Based in Southeast London, UK, Gary Drostle has over 30 years of experience in public art, working primarily with painting and mosaic techniques. His mosaic work in particular has won several prestigious awards and gained international recognition – he has completed major commissions in Iowa, Chicago, California, and Washington DC. Gary has also worked on community projects in Chile and Colombia. In addition, Gary continues to create major public artworks at his home in London, including commissions for TFL – Transport for London, Chester City Council, London Borough of Bexley, The Royal College of General Practitioners and many more. I met Gary at the first International Urban Mosaic Intervention in Chile in 2014, and later that year we both participated in the Second Biennial of Muralism and Public Art in Cali, Colombia. He is a much awaited and requested guest for this podcast, and it’s an honor to have him on!

  • 7. Back To The Beginning - Shannon's Mural Thesis Project - Part 1
    Apr 8 2022
    On this week’s episode I decided to do something a little different. The interview last week with Gustavo Lira took me a little bit down memory lane, back to when I was just getting into muralism. So, I thought it would be a great opportunity to start sharing my undergraduate thesis that I wrote back then - in 2011 and 2012! It was called: Latino/Latin American Muralism and Social Change: The Social Significance of the Cold Spring Mural. I combined research (from books and online documents) with first-hand interviews with artists (in Minnesota and Chile), as well as the practical experience of organizing a community mural in Cold Spring, Minnesota. As I organized this project I was studying at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University in Minnesota, and I was blessed to have amazing advisors to guide me: Bruce Campbell and Elaine Rutherford, to whom I will be forever grateful. I have changed a lot since 2012, and so has the world of murals. So I thought it would only make sense to share it if I also shared my present-day thoughts about the information and ideas presented. I had a lot of fun with that, and I like how it turned out! In this episode we get into the background for my thesis, including the mural project I organized in Cold Spring, Minnesota. I also define what I mean by the term “social change.” A few questions I pose in the episode: • What first comes to your mind when you hear the word, “mural”? • My thesis is based on the idea that collaborative, community murals create the most, and the most sustainable, social change. In so many words (though I never wrote this exactly), a collaborative community mural is the “best” form of muralism. I’m not sure I 100% agree with this anymore. What do you think? • Is it your sense that Chile is striving to maintain cultural autonomy separate from the U.S.? Or do you think that Chile copies U.S. culture? Or is it a little of both?

  • 6. Gustavo Lira García sobre el camino del muralista, el simbolismo, y la memoria histórica
    Mar 30 2022
    Hoy es un gran día porque en el podcast tenemos como invitado a Gustavo Lira García, artista muralista mexicano que lleva más de 26 años viviendo y creando arte en los Estados Unidos, en mi estado de Minnesota. Tiene mucha experiencia y talento en una variedad de técnicas, desde la pintura hasta el mosaico. Le tengo mucho respeto y admiración. Yo conocí a Gustavo en 2011, cuando estaba preparando mi tesis en la universidad sobre el muralismo Latino – Latinoamericano y el cambio social. Gustavo se volvió mi mentor en el muralismo, y siempre ha sido muy simpático y generoso con sus recursos y conocimientos. En esta oportunidad, hablamos un poquito de todo – de las diferentes técnicas, temáticas, y símbolos que Gustavo ha explorado en sus murales, y cómo él llegó a ser muralista en primer lugar. También revisamos varios murales en los que Gustavo ha trabajado durante su carrera, y Gustavo habla de su filosofía sobre el muralismo.

    Please welcome Adriana Mufarrege! Adriana is a very talented painter and mosaic artist based in Córdoba, Argentina! She is known for her excellence in mosaic portraiture, and she has traveled all over the world teaching mosaic portrait workshops. She has also done several mosaic murals. I met Adriana at the First International Urban Mosaic Intervention in Puente Alto, Santiago Chile in 2014 organized by Isidora Paz Lopez @mosaic.interventions I’ve divided our conversation into two parts. In this first half, we talk about Adriana’s beginnings as an artist and later her experience with the book, The Artist’s Way. I also ask her about one of her painting projects that really resonated with me. We also discuss Adriana’s journey from painting to mosaic, and a few of Adriana’s first mosaic mural projects. Plus of course, we talk about the life-changing experience we had at the Mosaic Intervention in Chile in 2014, and how the connections Adriana made there led to her traveling for mosaic to many different countries, before the pandemic hit and our relationship to travel changed. We go into how during the pandemic Adriana has pivoted to teaching mosaic workshops online! I’m so excited that this episode with Adriana happens to be coming out on International Women’s Day!
