Michael Carini: Turning Pain into Purpose with Acrylic Alchemy
Manage episode 449572682 series 2860866
In this episode, I sit down with Michael Carini, the neurodivergent artist famously known as the "Acrylic Alchemist." Michael has captivated audiences worldwide, with over 100 exhibitions showcasing his journey of transforming pain into purpose through a method he calls acrylic alchemy. We explore how Michael, a San Diego-based artist with a background of resilience and determination, discovered a creative process that channels his life's challenges—like Tourette's and a traumatic brain injury—into visual storytelling that deeply resonates with viewers.
Michael Carini shares insights into his journey, from his early influences to his unique approach that combines vulnerability with emotional depth. Join us to hear how he embraces his neurodivergent identity and creates art that's not only personal but meaningful to those who connect with it.
