In this episode of The Artist Business Plan, we sit down with Alexander Zastera aka The Climate Crusader to discuss artistic ways to problem solve important issues. If you check yourself and your impact, be open to participate as much as. you can, and use art as activism, you will align yourself as the missing link and thrive.
Guest: Alexander Zastera is known for their dark mystical paintings, found object installation and public performance centered around the environment.  Zastera graduated with a BFA in Studio art and BA in art history from Florida State University. Based in Miami Beach, Florida, working as an artist, activist, and educator they use their studio work and interest in public education to address local ecological issues. They have been a resident artist in the Miami Dade Library system with ProjectArt USA and their work has been featured at Deep Space Gallery, & Gallery, Locust Projects, PAMM, MOCA Nomi, and Superfine! Art Fair: NYC.
Currently Zastera gallivants in a masked guise of the superhero “Climate Crusader," a South Florida based environmental superhero building climate resilience and awareness through videos, public performance, and inspiring community action to save the planet.
