The X Character

Nov 6, 2019

A poet, graphic designer and multimedia artist originary from Mexico and residing in Finland, Daniel Malpica joins the Red Transmissions to discuss the very current matters that affect creators in transition, many of them migrants in need of visibilization, and what he's doing to help... and to cope with the situation creatively himself. 

The X character has become a sygil in his work and identity, because to him it represents the crossing of paths, moving through literary forms, and defining one's identity in the process.
