Illma Gore is a controversial "Gender Fluid Futurist". Living as a performance and visual artist in LA, Illma received national attention with her piece "Make America Great Again", featuring a nude portrait of Donald Trump. She's also known for her daring "Human Canvas" piece, in which "3,000 strangers worldwide inspire a piece of artwork permanently tattooed on the artist's body". 

Keeva and Illma sit down to talk about her experience with censorship on Facebook, her new piece that involved a drive down to Arizona and the Border Patrol, and her perspective on the true social value and beauty of free speech.
