Today's episode is with artist and graphic designer, Brandon Breaux. Hailing from Chicago's South Side, Brandon is one of those rare artists whose body of work  sits comfortably at both the personal and at commercial scale.  If you don't know Brandon by name, that's ok because we're sure you've seen his work with brands like Bud Light, Alia Seltzer,  most likely on all 3 of Chance the Rapper Album covers.  Art entered Brandon's life at at early age, not as a class elective, but as a way to cope.  You see, mental illness was a conversation had around the house throughout Brandon's childhood, as his father experienced a severe psychotic break that placed him behind bars, all on the day before Brandon was born. Slightly isolated and shy, Brandon found solace in art, comic book characters to be exact.  And it was in this space of world-building, that Brandon developed his love for characters, fashion, design, and illustration that would later develop into the career he has today.  Brandon now works with brands all over the country while also focusing on his personal and community-based work.  More than just hanging in his studio, Brandon is always seeking out ways to give back, like a Field Trip project, in which he rented busses to take children to museums who may not have  otherwise had the opportunity. He also lead daily meditations throughout the pandemic, and launched his 28 Days of Greatness portrait series earlier this year to highlight local individuals making massive impact. And an exclusive collaboration with the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago features design objects with themes that address accessibility, safe spaces and representation. In this episode, we discuss what it takes to bring a creative idea to fruition, the ghost of mental illness that exist in many families, the power of meditation, and why the design world remains one of the least integrated disciplines.  This is such a vulnerable conversation, and you'll see quite quickly that Brandon is one who leads with an open heart. If you find this content valuable, would yo leave a review over on Apple podcast? We love hearing from our audience, and definitely shout us out over on instagram @blackimagination… we'll shout right back.  Now, take a breath, relax, and settle in for this enriching conversation with Graphic Designer and Artist, Brandon Breaux.

Brandon Breaux is a fine artist from Chicago and the genius behind all 3 of Chance the Rapper's wildly recognizable mixtape covers. During this episode, Breaux details his journey through his art career starting with ‘going with and against the grain' by fulfilling his parent's dream of going to college all the while working and staying true to his real desire of self-expression. Ultimately his instinctual decision to stick to his love of art is what led to his success and exploration of self. He takes us through moments of nostalgia, his father's battle with mental health and his mission of elevating narratives and challenging what people think and see as possible. Breaux clues us into the power we have if we follow our mission, “I can design this thing how I want it to be.”  The conversation between TSB hosts Joey Nittolo and Eddie Donaldson prove to be an inspirational exchange about creating a life that feeds our purpose, pushing through the stigmas and limitations that others place upon us and ultimately letting ‘who we are' reach our highest potential. Follow us @spacebetweennow everywhere and don't forget to subscribe.

On this week’s episode, we catch up with fine artist and designer, Brandon Breaux, who is proficient in painting, sculpture, web, video, print, and much more. Brandon is known for being the artist behind all three of Chance the Rapper’s iconic album covers, and is recognized worldwide. Brandon takes us back to the days of his first artistic passion, how contributing to the culture has always been part of his DNA, the moment he finally had his breakthrough and his exciting, new, upcoming projects!

Like several guests I've had on the show, I knew of Brandon Breaux's work before I even knew who he was! He may be known best as the artist behind the mixtape covers for Chance the Rapper, but Brandon's art spans much further than that. And no matter how far his art takes him, he always represents for Chicago. Actually, Chicago is where our conversation began! We talked about the local design scene and how he feels being a part of it as his profile has grown, and from there Brandon told me about his creative journey through a few schools before settling into the projects he does now. He also shared some of his artistic influences, and gave some insight on his creative strategy and why mental health awareness is such a huge factor in his work. There's no telling where Brandon's work will take him next, so keep an eye out for him!

Brandon Breaux is a visual artist whose dynamic work across media has become immensely recognizable across the city and beyond. He is the visionary behind Chance the Rapper's album artwork, and has recently created painting, sculpture, web, video, print, and interactive media projects. He also appeared as a gallery contributor at AirGo's very first We 'Go Chicago Showcase and Celebration, way back in 2015. Is this appearance the basis of all of his success? Perhaps...
