This week we are joined by artist Ari Brielle calling in from Dallas, Texas, y’all! Listen in as Ari and Justin discuss her latest body of work and the act of expressing joy and not trauma as a black artist in the United States. They also talk a lot about plants, going to grad school, and the complexities and rewards of creating a self-portrait.
