    About the Artist:

    Mary Sui Yee Wong is a Montréal-based multidisciplinary artist who immigrated to Canada from Hong Kong in 1963. Working across disciplines that include sculpture, installation, video, and performance, Wong endeavors to defy fixedness in art as an act of resistance. She has been a board member of Oboro, Optica, and Articule. She was president of Little Pear Garden Collective, a Chinese performance group in Toronto, and is an honorary member of Yuet Sing Music Association in Montréal since 1990. She is known as an advocate and mentor within the Chinese community. Wong completed her MFA at Concordia University where she has taught for the past two decades. She was also an affiliate faculty and co-founder of the Socially Engaged Arts program at Goddard College, Vermont.
