025 ✿ Healing Through Art and Creating Intentional Media ft. Jasdeep Kang (@jakariwing)

For today’s episode I had the opportunity to speak with the amazing, multi-talented artist, Jasdeep Kang. Jasdeep is a queer Punjabi American artist who works with film, photography, and music. They practice their art with the ”intention of cultivating joy, care and fantasy for the earth and underrepresented communities” (Jasdeep Kang). Past clients include Mitski, Snapchat, HBOmax, and Times Square Arts. We talked about creative burnout and how Jasdeep is working on prioritizing her wellness in her art practice, to language and creating new meanings as first generation Americans, the connection between her creative outlets and spirituality, and more.
