In this episode, I sit down with Jade Liessa Wheldon, a multidisciplinary artist whose creative journey has taken her from designing props for films to producing documentaries and directing animations. Now based in North London and in her mid-thirties, Jade brings a wealth of experience and insight to our conversation.
We talk about her time in Africa filming a documentary and working with an NGO called Maison de la gare, an experience that left a lasting mark on her. Jade also shares her personal journey with Long Covid, opening up about how it has shaped both her perspective on life and the direction of her creative work.
At this link you can find more information about Maison de la gare and their work in Senegal.
