"Send us a message! (questions, feedback, etc.)"What do you do when your spouse tells you she wants a divorce and is in love with another man?That was a question Harrison Scott Key never thought he'd have to answer. But it's exactly what happened. Over the course of several years he navigated an excruciating saga of fighting for his marriage and for his sanity. He tells the story in his New York Times bestselling book How to Stay Married: The Most Insane Love Story Ever Told.In our conversation with Harrison, we talked about what it was like living it, writing about it, and the unexpected impact of book tour promotion about such a personal experience. We talked about family healing, and how his friends and his church helped him find the capacity for forgiveness.It's a rare talent who can take such a heartbreaking story and also make it so funny; but that's exactly what Harrison does - in the book and in our conversation. Harrison is a professor at Savannah College of Art & Design, has written three books, and lives in Savannah with his wife Lauren and their kids. (He's also the drummer in a cover band called The Love Handles.)#harrisonscottkey #howtostaymarried #marriage #infidelity #reconciliation #spiritualhealing #counseling #therapy #gospel #grace #awaken #awakenrecovery #awakenpodcast #whatwereallywant #wwrw #recovery #connection #conversationHarrison's websiteHarrison's books on AmazonHarrison's TEDx Savannah talk on YouTubeAwaken websiteRoots Retreat Men's IntensiveRoots Retreat Women's WorkshopAwaken Men & Women's support meeting info (including virtual)

Katia Costa é professora de Costume Design na escola de cinema e atuação da Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), nos Estados Unidos, a mesma instituição onde concluiu o mestrado em Production Design, com ênfase em figurino. A cidade de Savannah é cenário frequente de filmes e séries, e Katia já atuou na equipe de figurino de produções da Apple TV e da Amazon Prime.

Essa paixão virou profissão: Katia abriu sua própria escola de costura no Brasil, escreveu livros e treinou figurinistas da Rede Globo, experiências que impulsionaram sua carreira internacional.convidada: https://www.instagram.com/costa_costumes/ https://www.instagram.com/ktea_kt/ Consultoria - Moda na Mochila: https://www.modanamochila.com/consultoria newsletter: https://modanamochila.substack.com/about Ig: https://www.instagram.com/modanamochila/ 

Episode Overview  In this candid snack episode, Miranda Dorta puts Tracy Cherpeski in the interview seat to explore the essential roadmap from where healthcare practice owners are now to where they want to be. This unscripted conversation dives deep into the systems, strategies, and team-building approaches that create sustainable practice growth. Whether you're taking your first growth step or navigating complex expansion challenges, this episode provides the clarity and confidence needed to move forward strategically.  Key Highlights  Subtract Before You Multiply- Essential pre-growth evaluation to identify systems that won't scale and operational bottlenecks that need addressing  Capacity Assessment- How to determine if your current systems can "rinse and repeat" with minimal intervention before expanding  Sustainable Growth Rates- Understanding the difference between rapid growth (which sometimes just happens) and sustainable 30% year-over-year growth  Values-Driven Decision Making- Distinguishing between growth opportunities that align with core values versus those that simply increase revenue  The WAIT Method- Strategic pausing using the acronym "Why Am I Talking?" to ensure thoughtful leadership decisions  Culture as Foundation- How practice culture extends far beyond pizza parties to include conflict resolution, team unity during challenges, and shared vision alignment  Memorable Quotes  "You need to subtract before you multiply. If you don't take care of your problems, they're gonna grow with you."  "The key is if the systems you have in place can basically rinse, repeat, with minimal intervention, you're probably in a really good place to expand."  "We call it a shiny object and we call that the SOS - the shiny object syndrome."  "Culture isn't a workshop that you attend. If you're the head of practice and you're the practice owner, you set the tone."  "When you come together for a common goal, which would be the vision and mission of the practice, when you have your team on board, that's everything. That really is everything."  Miranda's Bio:  Miranda Dorta, B.F.A. (she/her/hers) is the Manager of Operations and PR at Tracy Cherpeski International.

We love fan mail: text us with your feedback and ideasThe beauty of yacht interiors often steals the spotlight, but what happens when we approach design from a completely different angle? Anita Rivera-Turcotte, founder of Verge Yacht Design, brings a novel perspective to yacht interiors that places engineering and function squarely before style.From their studio in Savannah, Georgia, Anita and her team blend interior design expertise with naval architecture to create spaces that work flawlessly while looking stunning. "Anybody can make something pretty," she explains, "but let's make it work for that specific owner and that crew." This philosophy stems from understanding that beautiful design must always respect a vessel's operational needs first.What truly sets Verge Yacht Design apart is the studio's groundbreaking work with sustainable materials. Forget the notion that sustainability means compromise – Anita's team develops fabrics from mushrooms, crushed stones, and corn husks that rival traditional luxury materials in both aesthetics and performance. "I feel like sometimes people look at sustainability and automatically think a dollar sign," she notes, "and that is not the case at all." Through biomimicry and innovative processes, Verge Yacht Design is proving that yacht interiors can be responsible without sacrificing an ounce of luxury.Beyond their design work, the studio team is actively shaping yachting's future through mentorship programs with the Savannah College of Art and Design, introducing bright young minds to the industry. And when asked what yacht owners ultimately want? Anita doesn't hesitate: "Experience." It's the perfect word to encapsulate Verge's holistic approach – creating vessels that function beautifully, respect both people and planet, and deliver unforgettable moments on the water.Ready to discover how function, sustainability, and beauty can harmoniously coexist in yacht design?

On the Friday, May 30 edition of Georgia Today: Four Georgia counties are among those labeled quote "sanctuary jurisdictions" by the Trump administration; the mayor of a Southwest Georgia town is arrested for alleged election interference; and Grammy award winner Jon Batiste addresses graduates at the Savannah College of Art and Design.

In this enlightening "snack episode," host Miranda Dorta turns the mic around to interview Tracy Cherpeski about the critical connection between leadership approaches and healthcare practice success. Tracy reveals how healthcare providers often exhibit confidence in clinical settings but struggle with business leadership, sharing practical insights on adapting leadership styles while maintaining authenticity. She introduces the concept of "changing hats" to help practitioners mentally transition between clinical and leadership roles, and emphasizes that micromanagement isn't always negative when applied strategically. Tracy's most impactful leadership tip? The power of the pause—what she calls "WAIT" (Why Am I Talking?)—allowing leaders to respond thoughtfully rather than reactively.  Episode Highlights:  The pattern Tracy observed in healthcare providers: confidence in clinical delegation but timidity in business leadership  How practitioners can transfer clinical skills to leadership while knowing which habits to "surgically remove"  The cognitive trick of "changing hats" to help the brain switch between clinical and leadership mindsets  Why micromanagement isn't always negative and when it might be necessary  The most powerful leadership adjustment: learning to pause before reacting  Memorable Quotes:  "Sometimes their business model is to hope for the best."  "Leadership doesn't mean knowing everything. It doesn't mean being in command or control of every single thing."  "Micromanagement - it's not a four-letter word, but it sounds like it could be."  "If you take your hands off, not abdicate your responsibility for success, but take your hands off and let them do their work, they will rise to the occasion."  "We call it WAIT. It's an acronym. Why Am I Talking?"  Miranda's Bio:  Miranda Dorta, B.F.A. (she/her/hers) is the Manager of Operations and PR at Tracy Cherpeski International.

Caroline and Sabri Farouki, partners behind New Orleans-based studio Farouki Farouki, bring a personal and global perspective to their practice. Caroline grew up in Lafayette, Louisiana in a home designed by Louisiana architect A. Hays Town, known for pioneering reusing materials. Surrounded by antiques and architectural details, her passion for design started early. She studied architecture in college, but shifted to environmental studies with a minor in architecture before earning her master's in fine arts in interior design from the Savannah College of Art and Design.Sabri, born in Tulsa, Oklahoma, spent his formative years in Egypt, attending an American international school in Cairo. His exposure to varied cultural environments shaped his worldview of what design could be. After completing his undergraduate studies at Washington University in St. Louis, where he met Caroline, he went on to earn his master's of architecture from Columbia University in New York.The pair launched Farouki Farouki in 2015 after working at acclaimed firms like AvroKO, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, and Bjarke Ingels Group. Today, their firm balances architecture and interiors across a range of hospitality projects, including the recently opened Hotel Henrietta in New Orleans and the Hotel Indigo Grand Cayman.Thank you for listening!

In this candid, unscripted "snack episode," Tracy is interviewed by Miranda, our Manager of Operations and PR at Tracy Cherpeski International and the Thriving Practice Community. Tracy shares her practical planning process for helping healthcare practice owners transform their ideas into achievable quarterly goals. She explains how to plan effectively even during uncertainty and maintain enthusiasm while building a practice vision despite challenges.  Key Takeaways:  Tracy's planning process starts with clarity - connecting the what, why, and how of your goals  Emotional connection to goals makes it easier to put in the necessary effort  Beginning with clarity increases speed rather than haste  Break down long-term goals by working backward - from 12 months to 9, 6, 3 months, then to weekly and daily tasks  Breaking goals into smaller chunks prevents feeling overwhelmed  Celebrate daily accomplishments with a "ta-da list" to maintain positive energy and momentum  Look for subtle wins: improved feelings, better sleep, increased energy at work  Lack of patience is a major challenge for healthcare entrepreneurs who want solutions immediately  The importance of "slowing down to speed up" - surrendering to the process brings clarity  Finding your practice's unique edge goes beyond clinical expertise to what makes you stand out in a competitive market  Notable Quotes:  "When we're emotionally connected to a goal, then it's easier for us...to put in the effort and the labor that's required to make something come to fruition."  "Clarity actually helps us increase speed rather than like haste."  "Sometimes when we have big goals, it can feel so overwhelming that we don't even start."  "My coach who trained me taught me about the ta-da list at the end of each day, which is...don't diminish progress."  "When we use this beautiful tool called surrender and we trust the process, that slowing down brings us that clarity that helps us then move forward with more speed."  "What makes you stand out so that you don't feel like it's about competition...Seth Godin calls it Purple Cow. Right? Like, what is it about your practice that makes you unique? And it can't just be your clinical expertise. It's not enough."  Miranda's Bio:  Miranda Dorta, B.F.A.

In this special "snack episode" of the Thriving Practice Podcast, Miranda Dorta interviews Tracy Cherpeski about the evolution of the healthcare industry since 2010. Tracy shares insights on current challenges facing independent practices, emerging business models, and essential skills for practice owners to thrive in today's healthcare landscape. From the concerning trend of private equity acquisitions to promising signs of physicians returning to independent practice, Tracy offers her perspective on where healthcare is heading and how practice owners can adapt. Main Points: Private equity acquisition of practices and expansion of larger institutions are concerning trends affecting independent healthcare practices Early signs suggest some physicians are returning to private practice after experiencing larger institutional settings Independent single-provider practices face significant financial challenges with high operating costs Collaborative group practices with multiple providers offer a sustainable model for the future Practice owners need to embrace their CEO role and focus on strategic leadership, delegation, and resource allocation Smart investment in marketing and operations is essential for practice growth, despite some resistance A shift back toward more relational, neighborhood-based practices may be emerging Notable Quotes: "I see independent provider practices struggling a lot with an individual, just one provider. So I am seeing a little bit more of a leaning towards a group focus or multiple providers." "I see practices that maybe are successful but they're not as profitable as they could be." "Most of our clients do not think of themselves as a CEO first. But if you're a business owner, you are the CEO." "It's not how you spend your time. If you're spending your time, you're probably wasting it... It's how you invest the resource, the finite resource of your time and energy." Miranda's Bio: Miranda Dorta, B.F.A.

In this special "snack episode" of the Thriving Practice Podcast, our Manager of Operations and PR, Miranda Dorta, turns the mic around to interview Tracy Cherpeski, examining the reality of healthcare practice leadership. This candid, unscripted conversation explores how practice owners can achieve sustainable growth without sacrificing personal well-being. Tracy shares her evidence-based approaches to sustainability, effective boundary setting, and the systems that support healthcare practice owners, offering valuable insights on achieving harmony between professional demands and personal needs. Main Points: Well-being vs. Work-Life Balance: Tracy defines well-being as the complete picture encompassing physical, mental, and spiritual health along with business health. She challenges the concept of "balance," suggesting that harmony with one's life goals is more realistic for business owners. The Importance of Slowing Down: Tracy emphasizes that the first step to protecting time and energy is slowing down to gain "crystal clarity" about personal and professional goals, which allows practice owners to prioritize effectively. Recognizing When Growth Threatens Well-being: Through reflective questioning and coaching, Tracy helps healthcare professionals recognize patterns that compromise their well-being and guides them to meaningful "aha moments" about self-care. Addressing Perfectionism and Control: Tracy normalizes the control tendencies common in healthcare entrepreneurs while helping them learn true surrender—not abdication but rather building trust in themselves and their teams. Notable Quotes: "Well-being is really the entire picture of the human being's health—physical, spiritual, and mental—as well as the business." "I just don't believe in balance... Most of us spend more of our waking hours working than we do being home. So right away we're out of balance. So are we in harmony with what we want out of life and the business that we want?" "The most important piece of the puzzle is to slow down... It's really important to slow down so that we can get really clear. And this is the key to everything—crystal clarity." "Physicians in particular are trained like never to let anybody see them sweat... It takes a while to sort of crack that facade and allow their real deep humanity to come out." "When we put it back on them to look at themselves and to trust themselves, it changes the responsibility... They double down then on the responsibility to ensure that their team has what they need so that they can take their hands off of it." "Most of the time, the desire to control ends up being the Achilles heel... when they recognize that it's probably the cause of a lot of their challenges and energy drains, it becomes a little bit easier to let go."

Elliot Ross is a photographer and writer whose work focuses on the intersection of landscape, identity, and justice in the American West. His images have appeared in Time, National Geographic, and The New York Times, and he's known for deeply researched, long-term projects that combine striking visual storytelling with a journalist's rigor. Whether he's documenting water access on the Navajo Nation or tracing the contours of Glen Canyon as it reemerges, Elliot brings a rare mix of artistry, empathy, and precision to every assignment. Born in Taiwan and raised on the eastern plains of Colorado, Elliot grew up between cultures and landscapes—an experience that shaped both his worldview and his creative path. He picked up a camera early, inspired by his grandmother's family albums, and later earned a full-ride to the Savannah College of Art and Design. After college, he cut his teeth in New York City, assisting some of the most high-profile portrait and fashion photographers in the industry. All the while, he was quietly dreaming about building a career on his own terms—one rooted in storytelling, purpose, and the landscapes he still called home. In this episode, we talk about the early experiences that shaped his artistic voice, the evolution of his career, and how he's learned to navigate the demands of both commercial and documentary work. Elliot shares the backstory of his recent Time magazine cover story on water equity in the West, a project that involved years of reporting, deep community ties, and even a return to the classroom. We also discuss his thoughts on creative endurance, working across political divides, and the role of photography in fostering empathy and connection. I'd encourage you to visit Elliot's website and dig deeper into all of his work, especially his project A Question of Balance, which became the Time magazine feature. You can find links to everything in the episode notes.

Leatherhead, Surrey, England writer Andrew Jackson is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest earning him a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and his winning story will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Andrew Jackson started writing and illustrating since age twelve and never gave up the former but (thankfully for his readers) has stopped the latter! One of his earliest memories is of watching Star Trek with his dad and falling in love with the speeding ships, bizarre aliens, and the diamond glitter of myriad stars in that eternal blackness. Even now, as he explores the strange new worlds of family, fatherhood, and a career in retail, he's never lost his love for the stars. Counting authors such as Stephen King, Iain M. Banks, and Alastair Reynolds amongst his literary influences, he revels both in reading and writing rich, tangible worlds other than our own. Born too late to watch the Apollo missions but too early for interstellar travel he must content himself with dreams and the sad knowledge that he may never know what's out there. Is there anybody out there? Why aren't they talking? Budapest, Hungary artist Ms. Marianna Mester is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Marianna Mester was born in Hungary and spent her childhood in a small village. From a young age, she was drawn to painting and admired those who could create works of art. Growing up, she didn't have much time to pursue it, but ten years ago, she made a decision to take her painting to a high level and began studying various artistic styles. She practiced relentlessly, experimenting with countless techniques, and now she's able to paint in about nine different styles. Everything Marianna knows, she learned on her own without attending any formal art school, so she's especially proud that people appreciate my work. Her parents started calling her “Manna” and now that has become her artist name with even her friends calling by that name as well. Her goal is to bring beauty into as many lives as possible because, for her, painting is not just art, it's life itself, a true expression of freedom. Savannah, Georgia student Ms. Jordan Smajstrla is a winner in the L. Ron Hubbard Illustrators of the Future Contest earning her a trip to Hollywood for a week-long master-class workshop, an awards event and her winning art will be published in the international bestselling anthology, L. Ron Hubbard Presents Writers of the Future Volume 41. Jordan is originally from Boerne, Texas and is currently studying at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Jordan Smajstrla was born in 2003 in Houston, Texas, and has been drawing for as long as she can remember thanks to the encouragement of her parents. She attributes her admiration of fantasy art in particular to her childhood interests, which included reading any book she could get her hands on,

Today I am joined by Monica Lavin. Monica is a Charleston, South Carolina-based designer and entrepreneur. Guided by a lifelong affinity for design, her journey has spanned several realms. With a Master's in Education, Monica began her career at NASA, immersing herself in emerging technology and social influence. She later pivoted to the world of academia, serving as a professor at the College of Charleston and Savannah College of Art and Design.In 2015, Monica founded Lavin Label, a popular blog celebrating aspirational interiors. Beloved for its visual storytelling, Lavin Label ushered in a new wave of creative pursuits. Monica embraced one of her greatest passions: interior design itself. Today, Monica is eagerly launching a new venture, combining her love for design with her instincts for creative problem solving. Through her work on Lavin Label, she observed her audience's draw to exterior-focused content, and found herself searching for the kind of design-driven accents that simply weren't being made. Hailing from West Virginia steel country, it only seemed right to manufacture something herself.Through Art of the Entry, her growing lifestyle brand, Monica creates timeless pieces for entries and exteriors. The designs (including mailboxes, doormats, and other thoughtfully crafted products) are elegant and refined, inspired by Southern heritage design and the region's traditions of hospitality.Art of the Entry WebsiteArt of the Entry InstagramFeed the NeedGood Friends of the Low Country

Molly Rowe, newly appointed Executive director of the Hilliard Art Museum, joins Discover Lafayette to discuss her love of the arts and working with artists. Molly has worked with arts and culture organizations such as the New York City Ballet and Savannah College of Art and Design, and Fortune 500 companies such as Google and The New York Times. Born and raised in Lafayette, Molly's mother was an antique dealer; from an very early age, Molly was exposed to art, antiques, antiques, provenance, and the research that goes into collecting and telling stories about objects. She grew up appreciating art and objects, learning about other cultures and people. At the age of 18, after graduating from the Episcopal School of Acadiana and ready to see the world, she left Lafayette at 18 to attend Cornell University where she earned Bachelor's degrees in History and French literature. Molly then earned an MBA in Strategic Management from Tulane, and completed graduate work in Art History at Sorbonne University and Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris. Molly's first job was writing for the President and Co-Founder of the Savannah College of Art and Design, Paula Wallace. "It's an institution that started with a dream of one woman who was an educator and now it is globally recognized. It is one of, if not the, largest private art institution in the world. It is a mission driven arts organization, and I learned so much about how it was run, how to build organizations of that nature, how to inspire people through that." The experiences Molly gained help define her career. "Whenever I started working with Paula Wallace, I envisioned myself to be a writer who was going to go on and do doctorate work in literature. I was very always interested in languages and storytelling. But through my work with her at SCAD, I realized that art has it own language and communicates things that words can't. Through studying art and learning about art and exhibiting art, working with artists, you're able to transcend time, cultures, and geography.” Molly shared, "We so often think that being able to create an art object or a painting defines creativity. But some of the most creative people I know are creative in business. I've built my career on working with artists and supporting artists and building businesses with them." After her work at SCAD, she moved to New York and was employed by consultants who worked with arts organizations, museums, institutions, and galleries based all over the world. She eventually opened her own consulting firm with that same focus, at the intersection of arts, education and business,. Molly worked with over 50 institutions internationally, from the United States to Europe, South America, and Asia. Molly says, "It's that work that allowed me to consult with incredible organizations such as Google, New York City Ballet, and The New York Times. My work with them was always focused around art and culture. I think so many businesses recognize the power of art and culture; in order to get a product into the hands of people, they have to tap into how their desired audience communicates, what they like, what they read, what they listen to." Molly explained, "Being able to tap into an audience's culture means you're going to be working with artists. It means you're going to be working with the people that are creating and building that culture. That's where I came in, as this sort of middle person, who would help organizations figure out how they were going to bring their product to people. It was always around working with artists. The other side of that was not only making sure it was good for business, but also that it was good for rhe artists. If we look at Louisiana, one of our biggest economies is cultural tourism. We don't think enough about who is benefiting from that. My job was always making sure that artists were represented appropriately and that were being compensated and rewarded in the right way.

When Aarron was in college studying painting and drawing, he had an absolute certainty about the path my career would take. He was going to move to New York, make it big as an artist, and never look back. And Eli, as an undergrad in product design, wasn't sure what a career in his field even looked like. The skillset wasn't clearly defined yet. The outdoor product companies he was eyeing wanted me to conform to a neat little box: “Are you an industrial designer, or a mechanical engineer?” He wasn't sure how he fit in. Did our careers unfold as we expected? Absolutely not. Life and careers rarely go according to plan. There's so much beyond our control. But, despite the unexpected twists, there are lessons that can guide us in the right direction. And that's what we're here to explore today in this special live episode of Design Better, recorded right here at the Savannah College of Art and Design. Today, we'll be speaking with four design leaders who took a winding path but all found their way to significant work.

As Facebook's first design executive, Kate grew the organization from 20 to 200, establishing multidisciplinary design teams in front-end engineering, user research, content strategy, and communication design. Steve Johnson, VP of Design at Netflix, leads a diverse, multidisciplinary, Emmy-award-winning Experience Design organization. His team's commitment to discovery, product innovation, brand development, and personalization has set the standard for streaming media platforms across the world. Prior to Netflix, Steve also led design teams at LinkedIn and Adobe.

Ep.222 José Parlá (b.1973) creates paintings and multidisciplinary works based on his interest in hybrid forms of abstraction. He draws inspiration from various mediums including music, calligraphy, dance, and the decay of urban architecture and advertisements. His works poetically challenge ideas about language, politics, identity, and how we define places and spaces. Parlá's relationship with mark-making is physical and textural, incorporating the body's gestures into a painterly stream of consciousness composed of areas of addition, erasure, and layering that challenge the status quo of visual culture. Parlá was born to Cuban parents in Miami, Florida, and lives and works out of Brooklyn, New York. He studied painting at Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) in Savannah, Georgia; the New World School of the Arts, Miami, Florida; and Miami Dade College, Miami, Florida. Solo exhibitions of Parlá's work have been organized at institutions such as The Bronx Museum, New York (2022); Gana Art Center, Seoul (2022); Istanbul'74, Istanbul (2019); Hong Kong Contemporary Art (HOCA) Foundation, Hong Kong (2019); Neuberger Museum of Art, New York (2018); SCAD Museum of Art, Savannah (2017); Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), New York (2017); Goss-Michael Foundation, Dallas (2016); High Museum of Art, Atlanta (2015); amongst others. Public arts projects include permanent large-scale commissions including Far Rockaway Writer's Library, a collaboration between Snøhetta and Parlá, New York (2023); University of Texas, Austin (2018); ONE World Trade Center, New York (2015); A collaboration with Snøhetta, Hunt Library at North Carolina State University, Raleigh (2013); Barclays Center, New York (2012); Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM), New York (2012); Concord City Place, Toronto (2010). Select group exhibitions and biennials include The Culture: Hip Hop & Contemporary Art in the 21st Century, Baltimore Museum of Art, Baltimore (2023); Brooklyn Abstraction, Four Artists, Four Walls, Brooklyn Museum, New York (2022); Reflections, Gana Art, Seoul (2019); Glasstress, Fondazione Berengo Art Space, Venice (2019); Beyond the Streets, New York (2019); Yasiin bey: Negus, Brooklyn Museum, New York (2019); Victors for Art, University of Michigan Museum of Art, Ann Arbor (2017); Post No Bills: Public Walls as Studio and Source, Neuberger Museum of Art, New York (2016); Seeing, Saying, Images and Words, Van Every/Smith Galleries, Davidson College, North Carolina (2016); Wrinkles of the City: Havana Cuba: JR & José Parlá, the Havana Biennial, Havana (2012); amongst others. Parlá's work is in several public collections including the Brooklyn Museum, New York; The British Museum, London; Buffalo AKG Art Museum, New York; El Espacio, Miami; POLA Museum of Art, Japan; Pérez Art Museum Miami, Florida; The Gordon Parks Foundation, Pleasantville, NY; The Neuberger Museum of Art, New York; and The National Museum of Fine Arts, Havana.

Send us a textOn this episode of the Stories to Create Podcast, Cornell Bunting sits down with Dani Papanikolaou, also known as "Papa," a mixed-media painter and sketchbook artist celebrated for his innovative exploration of saturation and line. Papa's work, often centered on nude figures, reflects his unique aesthetic inspired by urban tribalism and rooted in Neo-Expressionism, abstraction, action painting, and street art. His distinctive style is marked by bold mark-making techniques and striking color dissonance, making his creations instantly recognizable. As a live painting performer, Papa channels instinct and improvisation to bring each canvas to life.Born and raised in Florida, Papa has lived across the state and resides in Naples, FL. Over the past eight years, he has served as an educator, mentor, and community leader in Southwest Florida. Currently pursuing an MFA in Painting at Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), Papa envisions a future in academia and philanthropy.Papa's passion for portraiture and the human form stems from a deep fascination with the human psyche, which he explores through abstraction and expression. On the podcast, he shares insights into his creative process, including using automatic drawing to unlock his artistic potential. His vibrant and unapologetic use of color adds complexity and emotional depth to his work, evoking raw, genuine responses.During the episode, Papa discusses key elements of his artistic journey, including his Continuous Sketchbook Entries, Live Nude Figure Drawing, Action Painting, and his early experiments with Nonsensical Doodles and Prose. Reflecting on his creative ethos, Papa states, "I possess an investigative interest in mark-making with a love of exploring swashes of bold colors. I am a live painting performer, favoring synesthetic performances done in public or with an audience."This captivating and inspiring interview offers a glimpse into the mind of an artist who continues to push boundaries and innovate.
