Born to Native American parents, and adopted by German-American parents in the U.S., artist Brad Kahlhamer describes how he’s worked to create a ‘third place’ through his work as a musician and a visual artist. In this short documentary, Kahlhamer describes the relationships between making music, drawing, and sculpting. Melissa Olson interviews Kahlhamer in his Brooklyn studio about what it means to be a ’post-Smithsonian Delinquent’. Edited by Ryan Dawes(Photo by Melissa Olson)
