Episode description

Meet Andy! We were lucky enough to sit down with Andy at the Toronto School of Art to hear about his life as an artist in Toronto from when he moved there in 1975 until now. Andy tells us about living in Toronto, trying to make a living as an artist, before the AIDS crisis began, and the way life changed suddenly as he and loved ones started to become sick. He has experienced the death of 2 partners and the love and support of his community in managing the caregiving, loss, and grief. We are so grateful to Andy for sharing with us his fascinating and heartbreaking story of life, death, resilience, and art.

A prolific artist, Andy's work can be found on instagram @andy_fabo

Note: this episode deals with topics relating to death and dying, the AIDS crisis, grief, and partner loss.
