TAME

Welcome to the Tiny Room for Elephants Festival Audio Tour, presented by Love and Grit, a podcast from Visit Philadelphia that explores the authentic and diverse stories of the city.

The work you are viewing is by artist Tame.

This work is inspired by elephants and hip-hop together. In the sense of learning how elephants remember information and retain knowledge and tying it together with the fifth element of hip-hop, which is knowledge of self.

When asked, what does the phrase “made with love, inspired by grit” mean to your creative process, the artist responded: “Coming in to festival and seeing everyone in their zone. They all have their own grit and their love for their work. It inspires me to channel the same energy with my own art.”
