In this episode, we are joined by scholar-artists Dr. Celina Osuna, Assistant Professor of English at the University of Texas at El Paso, and Dr. Mathew Sandoval, Associate Teaching Professor in Barrett the Honors College on the Downtown campus at ASU. Osuna and Sandoval join Social Transformation Director Mako Fitts Ward in a conversation on the role of art in transforming the way we think, how we move and the overall lens through which we perceive the world around us. We also get into the importance of art and exposure to a range of artistic expressions for people across generations.
Dr. Osuna references the following artists and local spaces: Rafa Esparza, Chela, José Villalobos, Gloria Martinez-Granados as Borderless Creative, and Palabras Bilingual Bookstore. Dr. Sandoval references the following artists: Larissa FastHorse and Kristina Wong.
