Richie Morales taught himself painting as a child growing up in Guatemala. Now residing in Madison, Morales calls painting “his new first language,” saying he now paints “with the intensity of a scream to crack open calluses of insensitivity and oblivion, to nail puncture effervescent bubbles of privilege and overconsumption.” He’ll be the latest artist in residence at the Madison Public Library’s Bubbler room. Richie Morales and his collaborator Gery Peredes Vasquez join Eight O’Clock Buzz host Brian Standing, in the studio.
