In Conversation: Natessa Amin & Daralyse Lyons

Join us at COMMONWEAL as Daralyse Lyons and Natessa Amin explore ‘Feed the Moon’ through a discussion of Amin’s transcultural upbringing and biracial identity, and how both have impacted her approach to meaning-making through the imagery she develops within her paintings.

Daralyse Lyons is a Biracial journalist, actor, and activist who has made it her mission to stand for a more integrated world. She is co-host of the On Being Biracial podcast, which amplifies the voices of multiethnic people of a variety of ages and experiences, centering their shared experiences as well as their inherent diversity. She has written and spoken extensively about all dimensions of diversity, and feels tremendous gratitude for the opportunity to use her seemingly disparate background as a catalyst for cross-cultural understanding.
