ICRT BreakDown

Ep. 9: Street Art
Join Tim, Paz, and their guest, the artist, singer, TV show host, and actor Xiao Ma for a lively episode on street art. Find out what street art means to Xiao Ma, how he got started, and what helped him draw when he had no prior experience in art! Then hear whether these terms are cat’s meows or pet peeves: beauty is in the eye of the beholder; urban renewal; you don’t know what my painting means, but it’s beautiful; and follow your heart.
digest – (n.) 文摘、摘要
Some people say “Give us the Reader’s Digest version” when they want someone to make a long story short, but interesting details can be condensed to nothing in a digest!
associate –(v.) 把…連結在一起
Street art can help people associate neighborhoods and even cities with particular identities when it illustrates the lives, values, and history within those communities.
innate – (adj.) 天生的
Creativity may be an innate ability that can go undiscovered until something, like the unexpected invitation Xiao Ma received to draw something artistic, brings it out.
blend – (v.) （不同的東西或風格的）混合品，混合物
In Xiao Ma’s art, big, bold, colorful shapes that don’t seem like they would go together blend easily into a beautiful, somehow spiritual, abstract whole.
frown upon –(phrasal verb) 不贊成某事、不許可
Some frown upon graffiti and consider it an eyesore, a defacement, or an act of vandalism, but others see artistry, skill, and beauty in the typefaces and images.
