Creativity Squared is proud to support and partner with ArtsWave and to bring you this special three-part series, released every three weeks, featuring the phenomenal artists and grant recipients selected for this year’s ArtsWave Black and Brown Artists Program.
These episodes include vignettes of our interviews that took place during the third annual showcase of ArtsWave's Black and Brown Artist Program. For the full video versions of these conversations, visit https://CreativitySquared.com or the Creativity Squared YouTube channel (https://bit.ly/C2youtube).
The intention of these interviews is to give these talented and deserving artists another platform to share their art and truth expressed through it, as you never know what ripples will turn into waves. If you’re interested in working with, featuring, or supporting these artists, please don’t be shy about it.
The five artists featured in this episode include:
⭐️ Michael Thompson — project: “Murmurations”
⭐️ Asha Ama — project: “AGAPE”
⭐️ Michael Coppage — project: “Hands Behind Your Back!”
⭐️ Brent Billingsley — project: “I’m Still Listening”
⭐️ Julia O. Bianco — project: “Togetherness”
Their work is in the ArtsWave "Truth & Healing Artist Showcase" exhibition at the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, OH, through September 10, 2023. The next episode in this series spotlights the filmmakers whose work will be featured in another run of the showcase’s film festival at the Freedom Center on July 30.
Creativity Squared is a proud partner of ArtsWave and because it’s important to support artists like those featured in today’s episode, 10% of all revenue Creativity Squared generates goes to ArtsWave and directly supports the Black and Brown Artists Program.
Learn more about ArtsWave and why we proudly support the organization in episode 9 “Art Bridges Cultural Divides” with Janice Liebenberg, VP of Equitable Arts Advancement at ArtsWave: https://bit.ly/Ep9JaniceLiebenberg.
This year’s Black and Brown Artists Program cohort reflects a vibrant collection of diverse art forms created by an equally diverse group of 18 artists. Their mediums include couture fashion, painting, and sculpture — along with film, musical composition, podcasts, theater, dance, and multidisciplinary works.
The projects not only represent the African American experience, but also the experiences of those with Mexican, Lebanese, Somali, Argentinian, Zimbabwean, Guatemalan, and Indigenous heritage.
This year’s theme is “Truth & Healing” and Creativity Squared host Helen Todd had the great honor of interviewing the artists during the opening showcase to learn more about their work and what truth and healing means to them.
