Ep. 087 Jesse Littlebird – Painter, Writer, and Film Director

This week, Wes and Todd talk with Artist, Jesse Littlebird. Jesse talks about deep diving into art during the pandemic, the thought and subject matter behind his art, growing up in New Mexico, gentrification, capitalism, nurturing community, learning how to listen, process, the internet and art, painting as performance, aesthetics, art and cultural appropriation, leveraging identity and privilege, making people think, identity and struggle, filmmaking, the business of art, Hamaatsa, and his solo exhibition “Western Hyperreality.”
