Bonus Episode | Nadya Tolokonnikova

On this special episode of Hello, Print Friend, Miranda speaks with Nadya Tolokonnikova, creator of Pussy Riot. Nadya was first thrust on the world’s stage in 2012 when Pussy Riot members were arrested for performing their “Punk Prayer” in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow. Since then, Nadya has continued her practice of using performance art as activism and joins us on the podcast just weeks before the opening of her solo exhibition at CONTAINER in Santa Fe.

In this episode, they talk about her early art influences growing up in one of the world's most polluted and northernmost cities; how she stays loving, open, and connected when making art about all the hard things in the world; and making prints with Shepard Fairey.
