Host: Zef Llamas
Guest: Denise Silva
Producer: Xavier Mejia
Join host Zef Llamas in this thought-provoking podcast episode as he talks with the talented artist and storyteller Denise Silva. Denise, an indigenous femme mom, takes us on a journey through her life growing up in East Los Angeles and Riverside, California. After studying Design & Illustration at CSULA, Denise returned to the Inland Empire, where she put down strong family roots and immersed herself in the art community.
As a multimedia artist, Denise's work is best known for its bold figurative shapes and dream-like color stories. Her art is woman-centered and rich with sacred Mesoamerican symbols, often delving into divine feminine mysticism. Denise describes her art as "healing medicine for the soul, divine messages to find our way back home to ourselves."
In this episode, Denise also discusses the idea of Indigenous Futurism, which involves the integration of past, present, and future. As the curator of the Indigenous Futurism exhibit at the Cheech Marin Center for Chicano Art & Culture in Riverside, Denise brings a unique perspective to the conversation.
You can see Denise's project, "Grandmothers," a 40-foot mural painted on the west-facing wall of the Main Library in downtown Riverside. The mural represents the area's indigenous peoples, including Tongva, Luiseño, Cahuilla, and Serrano. This bold addition is worth visiting, and Denise's passion for the project shines through in the episode. Don't miss this engaging conversation with Denise Silva on the podcast.
