Podcast: Rylan Gleave

This is the front of an artist announcement card for Rylan. The design is styled on an American baseball card. The card has a thin white border and the rest of the card is black with turquoise accents. On the left hand corner, there is a triangular cross section of a photo of Rylan. In it, Rylan is gazing softly into the distance as he stands against a black wall. He has wavy brown hair, with a centre parting and his fringe falling onto his face. He has a silver hoop in his left ear, and is wearing a black hoodie, with brown buttons around the collar. To the right of the photo, there is the artist's name, Rylan, pronouns, he/him, website, www.rylangleave.com, and artistic practice, composer & performer. Below this is a short artist biography, which reads composer/performer with an inclusive music practise, addressing intersectional identity through imaginative gender/neurodivergent kinship. In a turquoise rectangle below this, the card highlights what the artist’s role is within CRIPtic. For Rylan this reads composer and musician in residence. Below this are the artist’s social media handles @rylanGleave, @rylangleavecomposer, @GleaveRylan, and a quote selected by the artist. This reads: Vocalist-half of the HONK Ensemble.
