More extended conversations with the YBCA 10? Yes please! In this episode, we reconnect with organic farmer, memory keeper, and YBCA 10 artist Nikiko Masumoto. We hear an update on the Plant Library, the prototype collaboration between Nikiko and fellow YBCA 10 artist Darryl Ratcliff. We also welcome to the table Galería de la Raza, a non-profit dedicated to promoting Xicanx/Latinx art and culture. Galería de la Raza’s Ani Rivera, Executive Director and Ivette Diaz, Curatorial Programs Coordinator join the conversation for a synergetic dialogue about memory keeping and cultural work, thinking of artists as professional feelers and essential to community development, the importance of maintaining relationship with elders, deeply personal intergenerational stories with land, and so much more!
