In the 14th episode of The Current, President Damphousse talks with artist and activist Matthew Mazzotta. They discuss how he became interested in the intersection of public art and activism, some of his most-known pieces, and how he created the recently installed public art piece at TXST, “Local Habitat” (also known as the Sleeping Bobcat).

President Damphousse also talks with Nisa Barger, director of public art for the Texas State University System. They discuss her career leading to her current director position, the art pieces on the San Marcos and Round Rock campuses, and the importance of public art on university campuses.
