In this episode of Good Trouble, we sit down with Rixy, the Boston-based muralist and visual artist reshaping the city’s public art landscape.
Known for her bold, narrative-driven work, Rixy talks about the responsibility of telling stories in public space — and what it means to create art that reflects the people, culture, and history of the communities it lives in. From being selected for the Rose Kennedy Greenway’s Dewey Square Mural to building a body of work rooted in identity and visibility, he shares how art can challenge, affirm, and transform how a city sees itself.
We explore the intersection of art, community, and belonging — and why public art is more than aesthetic. It’s memory, it’s resistance, and it’s a living conversation with the city.
Good Trouble is a podcast from Embrace Boston, produced in partnership with NBC10 Boston, featuring the thinkers and creators shaping our civic and cultural landscape.
