Multidisciplinary artist Ruby Singh joins Damian to explore the intersections of art, spirituality, myth, and decolonial practice. From Sikh teachings to West Coast Indigenous stories, Ruby shares how relationality and kinship shape his creative process, placing care and collaboration above product. The conversation dives into perfectionism, the Western art canon, and re-centering artistic value around empathy, community, and ecological connection. With projects like Polyphonic Garden and Kraken & Kin, Ruby imagines a “cathedral of creation” where all beings are interconnected, and art becomes a living act of solidarity.
