The Artist vs. the Art: Creating, Controversy & Coinslot (Part 2)
In Part 2 of our powerful conversation with Miami artist @Coinslot, we dive deeper into the role of art in activism, why separating the artist from the art is so complex, and how today’s culture is shaped by social media, stan behavior, and censorship.
We also explore the making of his evolving universe of original characters, and the future of art in the age of AI and digital pressure.
This episode is about growth, nuance, and creating anyway — even when the world tries to cancel you.
