Seren Oakley is a multi-disciplinary artist and events organiser whose work is based on queer spaces and elevation of others, which includes marginalised groups like asylum seekers.

Currently based in Leeds, England, she grew up in Swansea, Wales, where she found solace and community at a venue called The Scene, which hosted gigs for under 18s in the early 2010s.

In this episode we talk all about making out in the car park, hosting your own events, breaking boys' hearts, and how the internet has helped queer people find community throughout the pandemic.
