In this episode of How Art is Born host R. Alan Brooks is joined by Thomas Evans, a.k.a. Detour, an all-around creative specializing in large scale public art, interactive visuals, portraiture, immersive spaces, and creative directing. Detour’s focus is on expanding customary views of creativity and challenging fine-art paradigms by mixing traditional mediums with new approaches.

Hear about Detour’s days as a breakdancer, a student life coordinator on the Auraria Campus in downtown Denver, a trip to Zimbabwe that catalyzed his decision to pursue visual and interactive art full time, and more!
