Jasper Wong will be exhibiting down under in Australia in a show titled. “A Corny Concerto”. Jasper Wong is an artist, illustrator, and curator who has not only contributed as an artist in today’s scene, he has also helped in the shaping of it. Founder of Above Second Gallery in Hong Kong, and creator of the annual Pow Wow art events Jasper has been able to make a difference in bringing artists together through his gallery and Pow Wow in Hawaii. Having participated in Pow wow this year we were able to witness firsthand the effect of Jasper on the community involving the arts. It is great to see Jasper as an artist also get some time to himself to work on new paintings and exhibit. Jasper paints from a intuitive place, utilizing illustration as an inspiration. Jasper pushes forward to create some harsher and more  painterly images in this new body of work. We look forward to the opening pics and if you are in Australia if you missed the opening stop by and check out the work.
