episode 36 : kill joy

In this episode Miranda speaks with Kill Joy. Joy is a printmaker and muralist of Filipino heritage who lives and works throughout the world. This interview was recorded during the bushfire crisis in Australia in January of 2020, so there is talk about that particular time of chaos, but it is also incredibly applicable to our current COVID-19 pandemic. There are no small questions with Joy, so this chat is a bit of a heavy hitter. We talk about the systems in place to make us consumerist zombies, end of life care, and the destruction of the earth, but also the incredible transformative power of art, the mind-expanding experience of travel, and little children in Honduras befriending a frog in one of Joy’s murals.Kill Joy's Instagramwww.instagram.com/kill.joy.mallShop Talkwww.patreon.com/helloprintfriendYOUTUBEwww.youtube.com/channel/UCOMIT3guY5PjHj1M7GApouwMERCHwww.teepublic.com/user/helloprintfriendWEBSITEwww.helloprintfriend.cominstagramwww.instagram.com/helloprintfriendprint galleryhelloprintfriend.com/print-gallery✨patreon✨www.patreon.com/helloprintfriendOur sponsor Speedballwww.speedballart.com
