Breaking Free is not only the name of Flavio's most recent release, it's also an ideology that most creatives live by. Musicians, artists, actors, and performers are always attempting to rid themselves of the conscious mind to harness the sweet spot of creativity. Flavio and I also explore the idea of identity and how it effects the work he creates. Let us know what you think about this weeks episode of The Working Artist Project.
