Considering Art Podcast-Deborah Kruger, textile Artist

As a result of all the outreach surrounding my exhibition in Mexico City, Bob Chaundy found me and my artwork and asked to interview me on his Considering Art podcast.

Bob is a former BBC news journalist who has also written art reviews for the Huffington Post UK. He is passionate about contemporary art. Beginning in 2020, he spent the first year of lockdown in England interviewing artists, especially those who he felt deserved more recognition. His podcast Considering Art combines his interests in broadcasting and contemporary art.

I could tell from the outset that Bob had done his homework and was thorough in reviewing my website, abstract art and documentary. He even cared about pronouncing my name correctly, which completely endeared him to me (it’s pronounced D’bora).

Between Bob’s British accent and excellent editing abilities, I honestly have never heard myself sound so articulate! I hope you enjoy this audio interview as much as I do. I think he did an excellent job of presenting my art and ideas.

Making a Difference with Environmentally Conscious Art

At this critical moment when we should all be in earnest dialogue about climate change – extinction, consumption and migration are at the forefront of Deborah Kruger’s environmentally conscious art. The international artist, who has collaborative studios in Mexico and North Carolina, has committed her entire career to giving a voice to the voiceless. Kruger’s art mainly focuses on critically endangered birds and languages through collabrative, labor intensive processes utilizing recycled plastic bags to make works of astonishing size and beauty.

I am gratified by all the attention the show is getting, much of it thanks to my talented PR guru Rodrigo Arciniega.

Plumas is PRPG.mx’s premiere show in the newly expanded exhibition and residency space in Mexico City.
Deborah Kruger’s recent work focuses on the extinction of Mexican bird species, the death of Mexican indigenous languages, and the impacts of climate change on migration. Kruger uses the saturated Mexican colors which characterize her work to mimic bird plumage. She hopes to seduce her viewers, raise awareness, and inspire action about all that we are on the verge of losing.
