Flo Oy Wong's work reminds me of the flow of a threaded needle — gentle but blood lettingly sharp; delicately strung but forceful to withstand the ravage of time and culture; available and accessible but ready to travel depths. She is my role model as an engaged community artist, plowing the fields of her mind and the materials of her family journey to create illuminating works. She also appears unafraid and particularly graceful in her journey.
