Interlocutor Interviews PODCAST ~ Zhivago Duncan

LISTEN VIA THE PLAYER BELOW courtesy of Acast (the episode is also available on the Apple podcast app, Spotify, iHeart Radio, YouTube, Amazon Music, and more).

Zhivago Duncan was born to a Syrian mother and a Danish father in Terre Haute, Indiana. His fluidity across materials and cultural signifiers reflects the relentlessness of an investigative mind.

With freewheeling creativity spurred by his curiosity, Duncan’s lifelong impulse towards painting demonstrates his desire to contemplate, negotiate and comprehend the “big picture”: the origins of sentient life and the universality of consciousness.

In this interview, Zhivago deeply explores his process, motivations, and ambitious themes. He also discusses the series of works and the unique nature of the gallery layout of his current exhibition Mapping Out Unification at Colector in Monterrey, Mexico - on view until April 21, 2023.
