Mark Whalen has been with us for almost 20 years, from the streets of Sydney, Australia to a new life of a sculpture studio in Los Angeles. Now it is time we are with him: after losing his home in the Altadena fire of January 2025, I got in touch with Mark about a visit to The Unibrow's Radio Juxtapoz, but also to catch up on an immersive, darkly humorous series of works he was creating. It felt like the right time.

In this conversation on the podcast, we find the inspiration behind the world Whalen has created, the stream of consciousness and deeply investigative construction of the sculptures, the materials, the fun, the pain, and how losing his home will inevitably transform the power of the work.
