LAPIZ on Street ART, His Story and ART as Discussion

Julie Hest Season 2 Episode 4

In this episode LAPIZ shares his story. 

He explains he has travelled and lived in a few places in the world, that art was a hobby that became his full time.  As a scientist, his PhD helped him learn a way to think that he now applies to art.  The experience allowed him to learn a lot about resilience and his experience living in different places adds to his political art as a type of social commentary.

When LAPIZ speaks about art he explains that as an artist he feels he has a responsibility to create discussion, continue discussion, and change discussion, with his art.  Although people have his prints in their houses and he has displayed his work in galleries, creating a mural in a public place is one way his art opens those discussions, by making available ideas in the form of images that one may not normally consider or be aware of.

LAPIZ mentions, and I think it is a really interesting discussion point even by itself,  that “art is only whole with an audience”.  What do you think?
