Crossing Boundaries & Confounding Identity: Chinese Women in Literature, Art, and Film

book cover for "Crossing Boundaries & Confounding Identity: Chinese Women in Literature, Art, and Film" edited by Cheryl C. D. Hughes

I am deeply honored to be included as one of seven artists in the chapter “Woman in Chinese Visual Art over the Last Century”, by Shelley Drake Hawks.

In her thoughtful and thought provoking chapter, Dr. Hawks wrote “Wen-hao’s philosophy of living an observant life and welcoming chance encounters is informed by Chinese calligraphy…Working with live plants—watching them grow under varied conditions--satisfies her love for process, and her embrace of nature as her collaborator.”

I hope you will have a chance to read the full essay and book.
