After a brief unexpected hiatus, we are back with this expansive discussion with Sruti Suryanarayanan and Marina Lopez of Art.coop!
In this episode, we talk all about the solidarity economy, different ways of imagining how we do art and live, seeing art in the everyday, the importance of rest and our ability as artists to imagine a better future.
Sruti and Marina share ways in which you can incorporate collective principles of care and build community in your own life and art practice, as well as examples of organizations and folks who are showing how working cooperatively as artists IS possible to create a better world!
This episode is so full of inspiration, encouragement and permission to explore how your own creativity can bring the change you want to see, as this week’s Radical Creativity podcast guests share:
“You too are stewards of economic justice…rather than participating in a dominant extractive art world, you can build one that’s actually reciprocal, and respectful and meets and your community’s needs”—Sruti
“[as artists] we’re uniquely positioned to imagine new ways of being, and then to build those worlds because it’s what we do already”—Marina
