Marina Carreira - Author of Save the Bathwater and curator of Divine Feminist: An Anthology of Poetry and Art by Womxn and Non-binary Folx

Multimedia artist (and previous Perennials guest!) Marina Carreira is here to talk about creativity during covid-19. We discuss who gets to claim the title "creative," the importance of carving out creative time and rest time, and the practice of finding beauty in the mundane. Marina reminds us that if all we have energy for right now is survival, that's okay. And, creativity might show up in surprising ways.  We also speak about the opportunity for self-reflection during stay at home orders, especially reflecting on racial injustices and the importance of locating white supremacy within ourselves. We talked about how, ultimately, it takes a creative mind to imagine new ways of being for ourselves and for the world.

Episode 46: Creativity in Quarantine with Marina Carreira

Poet Marina Carreira and I talk about her new full-length collection of poetry, Save the Bathwater (Get Fresh Books LLC, 2018), a book that draws from her experiences growing up in a Luso-American immigrant family in the Ironbound neighborhood of Newark, New Jersey. Marina describes the immigrant experience of "existing in two places at once," and she brings honesty and tenderness to this portrait of a family that is raw, real and pulsing with life. Ultimately, she shows how love and forgiveness have shaped her relationship to her family, her culture, her own layered identities, and her work as an artist bent on justice.  For more information about the episode and Marina, visit the Shownotes page.
