In today’s show with Oscar aka Guache we talk about visual art, design, the graffiti scene in Bogota, Colombia, how art was used for political activision and protests and how they’ve used art to tell the story of their history… the heritage, the struggles and the transformation.
We also dive into his passion, which is using art to bring communities together and transforming realities through the introduction of art experiences. Oscar works closely with many of the indigenous communities across Colombia, providing valuable creative art and printmaking workshops for people of all ages.
Including:
- Where the name Guache came from… it’s dual meaning and why it’s important to him personally

- The influence of hip-hop and street-art in Bogota, Medellin and Cali

- How the messages communicated through street-art have changed over the last 15-years

- Art as an expression of our spirit, our consciousness

- How making the experience of creation, creativity and freedom through art can help individuals and communities transform… bringing hope.

- Empowering people to honour their culture

- The journey from underground street-artist to being commissioned to paint murals by institutions, local municipalities and cities around the World

- The influences on his own art and the importance of words to create impact
