Step inside the mind of reallyroda 🧠

In a recent interview, our Cultural Content Writer spoke with Roda at 401richmond about his artistic process, themes in his work, and bringing Kurdish culture into the public realm.

From transforming the traditional Kurdish rug into industrial and commercial mediums like LED and aluminum, to navigating cultural symbols and motifs, the conversation is full of insightful commentary about creating space in public art 💓

It’s also a full circle moment as Roda was a #CreateSpaceResidency artist with us last year.
