A conversation with an artist and arts facilitator on the power of creativity. He shares how his own difficult childhood experiences, including bullying and a mistrust of authority, led him to find his voice through punk rock and performance. He reflects on his career, which he describes as a mission to give a voice to marginalized communities, such as those with learning disabilities, the homeless, and ex-offenders. The discussion also touches on themes of forgiveness, the illusion of success, and the importance of human connection over fame or wealth. He concludes by explaining how his own "ordinary" life and deep-seated compassion drive his extraordinary work.
