In this episode of the Everyday Creativity Podcast, Anna B Sexton speaks with Quince Garcia about his creative journey, community engagement, and the importance of resilience and self-love.
Quince shares insights into his artistic expression through illustration and filmmaking, as well as his work with young people in the criminal justice system through his organisation, Roadworks Media.
The conversation explores the challenges and opportunities in the creative process, the significance of personal growth, and the power of manifesting connections.
