Written By Ben Carter

This week we return to a series featuring artists from the 16th Annual Workhouse Clay International. Guillermo Guardia joins me to talk about how his experience with immigrating to the United States and teaching in public schools has shaped his American Huaco series. In the series he decorates pre-Columbian ceramics vessels from Peru with images highlighting political and social issues. Stream this episode from your browser.
