Edward K. Weatherly

Meet Edward K. Weatherly. Edward is a talented artist, author, and classical pianist, who has also faced the struggles of paranoid schizophrenia, addiction, homelessness, homosexuality, and HIV.  Edward is now living in Calgary and has recently written a book, Making Sense of Crazy, describing his experiences from psychosis to recovery. In addition, Edward’s life and artwork inspired his sister, Nicole, to begin production of a 3D-animated documentary, X-THOTS, about a lost little alien who makes a crash landing in his reality, only to discover he’s not so lost after all. The film will enlighten and entertain audiences, promoting awareness and understanding of the diverse social issues that have impacted Edward’s life, set within electronica soundscapes and even some classical piano movements. With the love and support of his family, along with his healthcare team and medication, Edward is building a bright and healthy future, offering inspiration and hope for us all. Recovery is possible.
