In this episode, I talk with my good friend and visual artist Cindy Shih. We touch on a myriad of topics including the effect of the Corona Virus in San Francisco, normalizing your life during these strange times, what the future may hold for artists and much more.
From her website:
"Cindy Shih was born in Taiwan and immigrated to Los Angeles with her family at the age of three. She moved to the Bay Area in 2005, and currently resides and works in San Francisco.
Drawing heavily from her early training in Chinese calligraphy, she uses techniques from brush painting, Italian fresco, and landscapes to touch upon issues of gender, race, and power."
