Please enjoy my conversation with Erik Jon Olson. Using quilted plastic waste as his medium, Erik creates works that deal with the effects of consumerism, mass consumption and unfettered capitalism. By layering environmental issues with social justice messaging, his art emphasizes our alienation from the environment and each other, our willingness to waste, and our subsequent need for healing.https://www.erikjonolson.com/ Erik’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/erikjonolson/ Artist mentioned is Swapna Namboodiri @swapna_namboodiri https://www.beyondplastics.org/Erik’s work on exhibit https://www.erikjonolson.com/galleriesThis podcast was created by Natalya Khorover.
