Jade Wong
I am a multidisciplinary artist whose work examines themes of diasporic identity and resisting environmental injustice through painting, text, digital media, and installation. I was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, to two immigrants from Southern China. Though I did not grow up with many resources or guidance, I somehow found myself at a liberal arts college more than 5,000 miles away in suburban Massachusetts, from where I graduated in May 2024 with a degree in both Studio Art and Environmental Science & Policy. As of now, I reside in my hometown, Phoenix, and hope to engage in creative work that helps my city through justice and community-focused goals. When I am not creating art, I am also
writing poetry, learning new recipes to cook, and traveling.
