Sam Kirk's murals are not just about aesthetics, they're stories that promote inclusivity and redefine public spaces. This episode takes you through Sam's journey from her magnificent installation in Times Square to her deeply personal mural in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago near where she was the victim of a brutal hate crime.
We go beyond Sam's art to uncover the person that she is. A queer individual from a mixed-race family, Sam's stories of resilience and journey of self-discovery are as captivating as her art. She delves into her coming out experience at an all-girls high school, and the challenges she faced in her decision to become an artist This episode paints a vivid picture of Sam Kirk - the artist, the advocate, and the trailblazer.
