In this episode, I hang out with. Ryan Rado is a true renaissance man who is a musician, visual artist, painter, and the curator of the legendary Rock Wall Gallery.
He opens up about the struggles he faced in his youth, and how his art became a lifeline, a way to make sense of it all. There’s this fascinating tension between his subconscious and conscious mind that fuels his creative process in profound ways.
When Ryan paints, it’s like an emotional exorcism. The canvas becomes a canvas for his innermost feelings, a way for him to understand himself better. And his musical tastes are just as eclectic and captivating - from Bee Gees and Michael Jackson to The Smashing Pumpkins and Sleep Token, with a healthy dose of hip-hop like Eazy-E, NWA, Dr. Dre, and Snoop Dogg. Enjoy!
