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.

Poet, artist, and educator Kama LaMackerel speaks with Damian about ancestrality as both an artistic and political practice. Drawing from their upbringing in Mauritius and their trans and queer experience, Kama reflects on reconnecting with ancestral wisdom through art, ritual, and relationship with land. They discuss decolonizing the self, resisting extractive narratives, and fostering kinship with the more-than-human world as acts of healing and liberation.
