Wong has also developed Pride in Chinatown, an annual series of exhibitions and performances rooted in a 2018 residency at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Garden in Vancouver. While telling me this, he flung his distressed jean jacket open like a superhero, baring a black t-shirt with “Pride in Chinatown” printed in hot pink. He recently premiered his first sound installation, “Be Like Sound” (2022) — a riff on Bruce Lee’s famous quote, “Be like water.” Indeed, our conversation flowed freely with a fluidity that permeates his work at large, blurring the boundaries between categories and experimenting with methods of moving through the world.
