Two months ago I had the honor of participating in a monthly arts program called "Common Ground" located at the Vietnamese American Arts & Letter Association (VAALA) Center in Santa Ana, CA. I performed a live, brief shadow projection piece called "Ong 8-fold." It is an experimental moving image of an 8-fold artist's book that I created on an inkjet transparency and illuminated using an overhead projector. As an homage to my late grandfather, this piece was originally created in early 2012 and was reprised for this event.
