Name
Annie Wong
Where do you live?
Brooklyn, New York
What do you seek to communicate with your work?
I want my work to bring a little joy and whimsy into everyday life.
How has nature been a source of inspiration for you?
Nature is a constant source of inspiration, especially the animals and birds that share our cities with us. I like noticing their little personalities and how they have made their homes alongside ours.
Pigeons are my favorite. They’re familiar, funny, resilient, often overlooked and “silly”! They all look so uniquely beautiful!
Tell us about your most memorable bird experience.
I loved feeding them as a kid. It was super exciting when they all flocked around me.
