Gloria Wong (b. 1998) is a visual artist based between Toronto/Tkaraonto and Vancouver, on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh nations.
 


Her practice explores the complexities and nuances of diasporic identities and how they are shaped by different relationships — whether between people, their environments or objects. Through her lens-based practice, she is interested in the ways diasporic identities and lineage are constructed, negotiated and documented through embodied acts of care, memory and intimate cultural gestures.





Wong holds a BFA in Photography from Emily Carr University of Arts + Design (2020).
