Episode 5: Through the Brush — Art, Empathy & Seeing Our Unseen Neighbors
Update: 2025-10-14
Description
Welcome to Unsheltered Conversations, HomeAid America’s podcast where we explore stories of homelessness, hope, and the change we can build together.
Hosted by Scott Larson, today's episode features Brian Peterson, an artist, community builder, and the visionary behind Faces of Santa Ana, that became Faces of Mankind. From designing cars at Kia to painting portraits on the streets and now large-scale murals, Brian has turned art into a tool of connection, dignity, and justice.
We’ll talk about how a single portrait started a movement, how murals and public art can heal, and how visible love can change what ‘home’ means. Brian, thanks so much for joining me today.
