LAB the Podcast with Mauricio Vega: Freedom Is Beautiful

In this episode of LAB the Podcast, Zach Elliott sits down with artist and designer Mauricio Vega, founder of the SuperVivo Art Collective and the first commissioned artist for V3’s Freedom Is Beautiful project. Mauricio shares his life journey—from growing up under communism in Cuba, navigating scarcity and censorship, to discovering faith, creativity, and calling in the midst of political and spiritual tension. This conversation introduces the very first Freedom Is Beautiful art commission—an original piece created in collaboration with SuperVivo that launches an ongoing annual series. Together, we talk about the power of beauty to confront darkness, and why leading with beauty matters in the fight against human trafficking. Support / Sponsor: For More Videos,
