This week I’m welcoming Common Shapes’ very first guest, Lukaza Branfman-Verissimo.
Lukaza (they/them/Lukaza) an artist, abolitionist, educator, storyteller, cultural worker and person of multitudes. Through a practice based in the printed multiple, community-based work and installation building, they invite the viewer to recall and share their own lived narratives, offering power and weight to the creation of a larger dialogue around the telling of B.I.Q.T.P.O.C. (Black, Indigenous, queer, trans, people of color) stories.
Listen in to hear us discuss—
- The web shape for creative work
- How to craft a studio practice
- Claiming our work as our main income stream
- How to weave your values and your activism into your sharing practices
- The radical history of newsletters
