Groundbreaking street artist Caledonia Curry, also referred to as Swoon, recounts the idea behind the Braddock Tiles project using art to rebuild both a landmark and community ties to their own artistic expression. Curry's talk also touches on personal reflection and past trauma while arriving at the conclusion of grappling with the question of: what happens when an idea needs to be passed on? Widely known as the first woman to gain largescale recognition in the maledominated world of street art. Today, her art can be found on the sides of buildings worldwide, as well as at more traditional locales such as: The MoMA The Museum of Modern Art, Institute of Contemporary Art Boston, Tate Modern Museum, and Sao Paulo Museum of Art. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
