About this episode
This episode kicks off Season 2 of the “Raising the BAAR in Art, Culture, and Society podcast series. During this season we talk to #womeninart from across the globe. During this episode, the founder of BAAR Art Journey and Residency (Jewell Sparks) sits down with co-host Carolina Carreteiro and artist Cristina Canale to discuss her art journey. Cristina discusses her transition from South America to Germany, and the impact of these cultures on her mindset, creativity, and personal journey. They discuss the value of stepping outside of one's home country in order to reflect, create, and engage unapologetically.
Cristina Canale was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1961. She lives and works in Berlin, Germany. Cristina Canale’s work is often based off prosaic everyday scenes, which she extracts from advertising photography. Her paintings result in elaborate compositions that intertwine the figurative and the abstract, often blurring one with the other.
