JASON WING

Jason Wing has steadily emerged as an artist who explores issues of bi-culturalism, indigenous rights and political identity. Along with environmental awareness and spirituality with a street-wise flair and strong commitment to community engagement. His work represents his journey into his cultural background to reconcile his Aboriginal and Chinese roots.

He uses traditional earth-based colours – red, yellow and black – which are significant colours in both Aboriginal and Chinese traditions. And his technique of stencilling represents a link to the traditional visual mark makings of his Aboriginal heritage as well as street art.

Jason is a graduate of the Sydney College of the Arts and Sydney Graphics College. In 2009 he was a finalist for the Royal Bank of Scotland Emerging Art Prize and the NSW Parliament Indigenous Prize.
