“I think we need something that's elevating or beyond us, otherwise life is just too drab I think.” - Lora Arbrador The Courage to Paint What Matters...with Eggs The Art Unknown Podcast sits down with Lora Arbrador; an artist whose life feels like it was dropped straight into the middle of history and told to figure itself out. From the chaos of 1960s Berkeley and living out of a van, to working as a nurse on the frontlines of the AIDS epidemic, Lora’s story is anything but ordinary. We dive deep into her devotion to egg tempera; an ancient, painstaking technique that demands patience, precision, and a willingness to surrender to time. But this conversation goes far beyond process. Lora opens up about creating deeply personal and often provocative work; paintings that explore death, intimacy, the human body, and the moments most people shy away from. This is a conversation about living your art, not just making it. About embracing imperfection, letting go of timelines, and trusting the slow burn of a creative life. It’s raw, reflective, and a powerful reminder that art doesn’t come from comfort; it comes from experience. images: ©lora arbrador lora arbrador website lora arbrador instagram Subscribe: iTunes | Android | Spotify | Email | RSS MORE ART UNKNOWN PODCASTS
