More about Miguel Arzabe

Contributor

You may have spotted artist Miguel Arzabe deep in the wilderness, kicking and throwing oranges, balls, and other round objects repeatedly into the air, while a camera catches it all on video.  

Team Sartle met Miguel at Montalvo Arts Center in CA, where we had the good fortune of participating in his interactive art-game “Faceball.”  Feeling a bit silly, but laughing the whole time, I attempted to snap a photo right at the moment a ball was tossed in front of my friend's face...thus….Faceball. More difficult than you’d think!

Miguel’s work also includes painting, explorations of his Bolivian heritage, and more. He jumps, “paints” with a digital camera, and creates political artwork in public. Keep an eye on this guy, because who knows what direction he’ll fly in next!
