  • Turning politics and graffiti into a career in art - Scottie Marsh
    Dec 5 2025

    In this episode of The Socius Podcast, Will sits down with Scott Marsh - the street artist behind some of Australia’s most viral and controversial murals.

    From the Kanye Loves Kanye piece that made global headlines to politically charged works that regularly spark media blow-ups, Scott shares how he turned graffiti, satire and risk-taking into a full-time creative business. We dive into going viral, dealing with backlash, and why playing it safe is the fastest way to disappear in today’s attention economy.

    Scott also breaks down the business behind the art: building a brand without galleries, pricing creative work, choosing the right controversies to lean into, and staying authentic while managing public pressure. A sharp, unfiltered conversation for founders and creatives wanting to cut through noise, attract attention and grow with confidence.
