He creates personified earthenware vessels that mirror his friends, family, and himself while drawing from the ceramic language of early Mesoamerican ceramics. In our interview, we talk about how Gaitan found his way to ceramics and how he rethinks museological displays as a celebration. We also discuss growing up in a religious household, how he reconnects to his Nicaraguan heritage as a first-generation Miamian, and wanting to portray \u201cbig bodies\u201d through his ceramics. Furthermore, he shares his thoughts on complex terms such as \u201cLatinidad\u201d and \u201cpre-Columbian.\u201d &amp;nbsp;  Today\u2019s episode is brought to you by the following sponsors: AMACO Brent www.amaco.com The Bray www.archiebray.org ","author_name":"Clay In Color","author_url":"https:\/\/www.brickyardnetwork.org\/clayincolor","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/28656833\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/28656833"}
