About Me

Jess Stewart-Lee

Jess Stewart-Lee is an MA student at Concordia University working on her SSHRC-funded thesis project, which seeks to explore the intersection of marginalized identity, temporality, and memory—themes which she often explores in her creative work outside of the academy. She also works as a research assistant with the Archive/Counter-Archive Network to study the use of archival footage in autobiographical films by Chinese filmmakers.
