Episode transcript available here.In this week’s episode of The West Meeting Room, we sit down with the incredible Farhiya Jama, a Somali-Canadian visual media artist and diasporic storyteller whose beautiful and whimsical creations are nothing short of extraordinary. Through her multidisciplinary artwork- a fusion of photography and visual design - she merges fantasy and futuristic science fiction to weave narratives starring Black women and girls. Tune in as she shares her story and imparts so much wisdom: about representation, her creative process, and the purpose, inspiration and driving force behind her artwork.
