Rhys Douglas Farrell: Transforming Spaces with Art. The Calgary Sessions Ep111

What drives an artist's journey?

In this episode of The Calgary Sessions, I sit down with local artist and muralist, Rhys Douglas Farrell, a Calgary native whose vibrant works are shaping the city's visual landscape.

We chat about his early days of drawing Pokemon and Dragonball Z characters to creating large-scale murals that blend art and science. Rhys discusses his experiences at art school, the evolution of his style, and his unique approach to finding inspiration in the ordinary, from architecture to the patterns on manholes. He also shares fascinating stories about his travels, including a transformative trip to Tokyo and art residencies in places like Spain and Sicily.

This episode isn't just about art; it's a look into the life of someone who lives and breathes creativity.
