Outsiders and Others with Redrum Sticker Artist

Art at Outsiders and Others with Redrum the Sticker Artist“Outsiders and Others is a non-profit art Society with a focus on bringing non-traditional artists to the forefront.  Their artists identify as outsider, folk, self-taught, visionary, intuitive, and artists with disabilities.”   Outsiders and Others defines outsider art as the work of those who have no formal training, create art for themselves to record their life experiences or document historical events (not necessarily for an audience), and use non-traditional materials (like found objects).  In May, Mental Health Awareness month, Outsiders and Others presented Brain Child featuring artworks from Caro Embling, REDRUM, and Gabriel Ostapchuk.  We had the opportunity to speak with Yuri Ajars. Artistic Director and Curator, about this exhibit and the gallery.  We also chatted with Redrum, the sticker artist (@redrum_ays_crew).  Redrum describes the different neurodiverse and disability issues he copes with daily but also how important art has been to his process specifically in inspiration around images and topic.
