Episode 7: Joel Gaitan & Bedazzled Divas
Episode 7
Thursday, 17 October, 2024
Today we welcome artist and ceramist, Joel Gaitan. While celebrating life, death, and the afterlife, Gaitan’s work studies the matters of self-identity, sexuality, and ancestral lineage. From forgotten tongues, to erased cultures, Gaitan immerses into traditional hand building clay techniques, keeping a sacred tradition from Nicaragua & Central America alive in a colonized world. Since encountering Gaitain's work on Instagram I have been seduced by his beautiful pre-colombian inspired sculptures. In this episode we discuss his journey into becoming an artist, his art practice and creating his bedazzled pre-Colombian divas. You can find Joel Gaitan's work on Instagram at Nicanahuac or at https://joelgaitan.art/ Produced & Edited by: Nathalia Morales-Evanks Jingle: Space Primo
