... with Zhivago Duncan

In this episode of WAS MIT KUNST, Johann König is in conversation
with the artist Zhivago Duncan. Zhivago Duncan is a Syrian-American
multi-disciplinary artist living and working Between Los Angeles
and Mexico City. His work spans a wide range of mediums, including
elaborate large-scale paintings, drawings, raku ceramic sculptures,
kinetic dioramas, and immersive installations. The unifying
conceptual thread running through Zhivago’s work is an exploration
of the evolution of human consciousness and the construction of
reality through culture. In the podcast, König and Duncan talk
about his first touchpoint with art, an encounter with Jean-Michel
Basquiat, sources of inspiration, and his artistic process.
