Listen "Polvo Eres Interview"
Episode Synopsis
We sit down with Colombian artist Polvo Eres, whose exhibition Our Existence is Protest is currently on view at the Center for Mad Culture. Born out of fear of government crackdowns on mad, disabled, houseless, and immigrant communities, the project transformed the Center into a space of resistance where community members could gather, set type, and print their own posters of protest.In this conversation, we talk about political violence, the weaponization of psychiatric language, and the power of creating together when traditional protest spaces are inaccessible. As part of the show, visitors also left their own messages of protest, two of which are shared at the end of the episode.Instagram: @polvo.ereswebsite: polvoeres.co
