Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: "In particular, I resonated with Katherine Lum because of her determination throughout her fight for an equal education for her children. My parents, also of Chinese descent, have worked continuously so that my brother and I could receive a better education, and thus have a better chance at finding success later in life…Katherine Lum, before being a hero, or an activist, she was a mom. This key aspect was what I wanted to highlight most in my piece."
