Chinese American Artist Christine Wong Yap Presents 'Bright Prospect' for Future Chinatown Library
In San Francisco, a city and county in California, San Francisco artist Christine Wong Yap presented her public art proposal "Bright Prospect" for the future Him Mark Lai Branch Library in Chinatown at an October 20 meet-the-artist event hosted by the San Francisco Public Library. The work, selected through the San Francisco Arts Commission, will become permanent public art in the new Chinatown branch.
Wong Yap, a Chinese American artist known for work on belonging and mental health, gathered residents' input on the piece at the session. The new branch, named for historian Him Mark Lai, is a centerpiece project for the Chinatown community.
