Jordan Wong
Jordan Wong (WONGFACE) is a Chinese American artist creating visual work inspired by anime, manga, and video game culture. His drawings, icons, and installations explore ethnic and cultural identity, the “Ultimate self”, and “leveling up” through life.
Jordan has produced artwork throughout Cleveland and has exhibited at the Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, the Massillon Museum, and the Akron Art Museum. In 2024, he was one of seven artists selected from over 100 applicants to receive Cleveland’s Transformative Arts Fund, leading a $450,000 public art initiative in partnership with The Sculpture Center. He directed fabricators, emerging Asian artists, and community partners to complete five permanent installations supporting the future development of a park in Cleveland’s AsiaTown.
His artwork is held in collections including Meta (parent company of Facebook), Akron Art Museum, Children’s Museum of Pittsburgh, Cleveland Public Library, Cleveland Clinic, and University Hospitals.
Past examples of Jordan’s work include:
AsiaTown Pop-up Park Entrance Gate: Aluminum, industrial print on vinyl
