À PROPOS DE CE PODCAST 🔗
Art Against Empire examines the intersection of creativity and politics through conversations with artists, craftspeople, and activists who use making as a form of resistance.
Hosted by recovering political pundit and textile artist Ian Danger Capstick, each episode dives into the radical history of craft traditions, profiles contemporary makers disrupting systems, and shares practical projects that merge beauty with dissent.
From textile workers' strikes to guerrilla street art, from Indigenous craft sovereignty to anti-capitalist maker spaces...we explore how human creativity has always been a tool for liberation.
Art Against Empire is produced and edited by Shawn Dearn, and is a production of Secret Agents.
