Creation and Impermanence – Moab artist PiMo on Art Talks

Pete Apicella and his mother Carol

Of all types of people, the artist might be the most intimately familiar with creation and impermanence. On a very unique Art Talks, Moab artist Pete Apicella (PiMO) discusses these concepts, not only in relation to art but also to family and home. His mother Carol passed away earlier this month in his homestate of New York, after exposure to novel coronavirus. On a beautiful Easter Sunday morning, PiMo discussed his mother’s death during a global pandemic, the concept of home, and the role of art – both in consumption and creation – during traumatic experiences.
