Kevin Collins is the CEO of Secret Walls, a global phenomenon founded by Terry Guy in 2006. They’re known for exhilarating live paint battles that showcase the extraordinary talent of global artists and captivate audiences with high-energy creative showdowns.
Secret Walls battles consist of two teams of artists that go head-to-head, armed with nothing but their imagination and black paint, as they create masterpieces on a blank canvas in front of a live audience. Within a time limit of 90 minutes, these skilled artists push their limits, turning ordinary walls into extraordinary works of art.
Kevin shares how Secret Walls is also committed to inspiring the next generation of artists through the Secret Walls Academy, empowering new and emerging artists through direct creative engagement. His mission is to expand the Secret Walls universe with a robust battle schedule, exclusive collaborations and unrivalled storytelling, while leveraging the power of live art as a cultural force and a catalyst for social change.
On this episode, host Angela de Burger chats with Kevin about how his passion for Secret Walls was ignited after seeing a live art battle, why they’re driven by their SYLA (support your local artist) approach, the purpose behind presenting creative challenges to the artists who participate, and how they bring together creativity, competition and community in so many unique ways.
