Artist: Yawar, Layqa Nuna

Nuna Layqa Yawar is a public artist and multidisciplinary storyteller. He creates large scale community-based murals, intricate portrait paintings and multimedia projects that center the complex narratives of immigrant, black, indigenous and subaltern populations. His work exists at the intersection between migrant alienation and belonging, cross-cultural identity and decolonization, and between private and public space.
