    Color Remembers: Justyna Kisielewicz

    Polish-born, Miami-based artist Justyna Kisielewicz reclaims beauty as a form of protest. In her new exhibition Living Space (Lebensraum) at Galería La Cometa, she uses bold color, luxury symbols, and historical memory to confront colonial narratives and redefine who gets to tell their own story. We talk about migration, agency, and color as resistance — and how the past shapes what we choose to see in the present. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Urban Memories: Juan Garaizabal

    Launching the second season of the podcast, we visit Spanish sculptor Juan Garaizabal in his studio on the outskirts of Madrid—a grungy, cool garage brimming with projects and metal scraps. In this special episode, we delve into Juan’s ambitious and long-standing project, Urban Memories, a series of powerful artistic installations of unconventional structures that recreate the spirit of heroic stories, evoking a collective vision of memory, history, and romantic nostalgia. Juan, welding each piece himself, has immortalized urban spaces in cities like Segovia, Miami, Doha, Seoul, and Shanghai, among many others. Visit @sublimeartproject on Instagram to view his work.

    Quinceañera Couture: Anabella Bergero

    When do humans come of age? In Latin America, there’s a special celebration called the Quinceañera that marks the transition from girlhood to womanhood. Taking place during a girl’s 15th birthday, this traditional party is characterized by bold colours, glitter, over the top dresses, and choreographed dances.  Today, we have the pleasure of speaking to award winning fashion designer and artist Anabella Bergero in her latest exhibition ‘Heart of the Community’ currently on show at Faena Art Project Room in Miami, where this episode was recorded to a live audience. Using religious pop iconography and the vibrant colors of urban Latin American life, Anabella explores the sociopolitical intricacies of Quinceañeras. Anabella is a professor at Instituto Marangoni in Miami. She has been featured in L'Officiel, Vogue, i-D Magazine, Harper's Bazaar, Clarin Newspaper, and exhibited internationally, including Buenos Aires, Mexico City, New York and Miami. Between 2015 and 2018 she was selected as emerging designer of the year by Harper's Bazaar Argentina. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Interventions in Nature: Ana Gonzalez Rojas

    Artist and architect Ana González Rojas welcomes us into her studio in Bogota where we discover work inspired by El Dorado, a legendary city made of gold, which she believes to be Colombia's natural heritage. Using very delicate and refined techniques, such as embroidery, crochet and porcelain, her sculptural works and textile interventions are marked by a distinct concern for understanding mining, deforestation and forced displacement. Ana graduated as an architect from the University of los Andes, specialized in Art and Gender at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland and did her Masters in Photography-Printing-Editing at ESNBA and ESCP in Paris, France. This episode was developed in collaboration with Galeria La Cometa.
