In this episode, I sat down with my good friend artist and painter Zico Albaiquni. I spent the day at Zico’s and his wife, Ayas’ house as they settled down in their new home in Melbourne, Australia. We spoke about his experiences growing up in a family of artists, his daily routine as a father of two young kids, and the power of gratitude, creativity, and reflection in life and artistic practice. We also discussed the importance of asking questions and cultivating curiosity in Zico’s artmaking journey. We found that it is often the seemingly small or mundane moments in our everyday life, whether it be making coffee, playing with our kids, or walking to the train station, that feed into our creative practice and strengthens our ability to think deeply about the world around us.
