Lady Pink: Alter Your Space. Why the Hell Not? (S2 E2)

Kites and Strings

In this episode of Kites and Strings, Steve and Catherine have the distinct pleasure of interviewing Lady Pink. Although she informs us that there were many women who came before her, she has been called the first lady of New Your City Graffiti Art back in the 80's, when street culture (think hip hop, break dancing and graffiti art) were just entering the mainstream. This is such an interesting and informative conversation about that culture, the inherent dangers and just how similar it was to sports. For decades now, street art is considered one of most extensive art movements and its not just for the cultured, elite. Lady Pink asks why art can't art be brought to the street and made accessible to everybody. We also learn how Lady Pink has evolved to teach and mentor younger artists and how she exhibits worldwide and continues to tag her community with amazing artwork.
