Frida Kahlo: Painter, Icon, Revolutionary
We want to level with you. It’s a Wednesday (or Tuesday maybe, depending on the time zone), it’s November, we’re nearly at the party season but not quite there. And we can’t lie: we’re ready for some tequila, some tacos, some beautiful bright clothes and some Mariachi music. We’re ready for a break.
Aren’t you?
But in lieu of a holiday, let’s travel in our minds.
This episode, we’re going back to 1900s Mexico to visit a woman with dreams in her mind, flowers in her hair and passion in her soul.
We’re talking about the one… the only… Frida Kahlo.
In this episode, you’ll hear about the heartbreakingly beautiful inspiration behind her iconic paintings, her rollercoaster love story with Diego Rivera and the gold glitter dust bus accident that started it all.
It’s big, it’s colourful, it’s amazing.
¡Escúchanos! It’s time to listen in.
We also mention the Share the Dignity 'It's in the Bag' campaign (AUS)
