PIER 2 PEER: TANYA WISCHERATH

In this episode of Pier 2 Peer, Tanya discusses her hope for public art’s role as the “connective tissue of community.” In addition to dissecting the process for her mural on view at The City Canvas: A Paint the Void Retrospective (originally at Sanchez and 18th Streets in the Castro), Tanya fills us in on another transformative mural at Spunk Salon. That one honored LGBTQ+ activist Martha P. Johnson and homeless advocate Margo Antonetty. Both artworks would not have been possible without the support of Castro Street Art Project and Project Artivism.
