Mongo Wang, creates art that is a journey into Mysterious Stillness. Her name, which means “brave, tall, and strong” in Chinese, is a reflection of her artistic goal—to create powerful work that feels much larger than life. From a young age, she was drawn to two opposing forces: the Taoist idea that everything has a spirit and the strong feminine power of Sailor Moon. These influences taught her to infuse her art with a sense of quiet energy and a deep connection to nature.
Her style is a direct collision of tradition and modernity. She takes ancient ideas like the twelve zodiac animals and symmetrical patterns from temple murals and reinterprets them with modern human figures. The color palette is what sets her apart; she uses bold neon and pastel gradients to give these traditional motifs a fresh, energetic feel. The result is an art that feels both peaceful and vibrant, capturing a mysterious moment of harmony between nature and humanity.
A standout achievement in her career is the one-month artist residency she completed at a private museum, a project that culminated in a collaborative exhibition. She’s chasing dream projects, like creating a full set of tarot cards or designing visuals for a music festival, both of which perfectly match her psychedelic style. She is focused on balancing personal freedom with commercial work, creating art that stays true to her vision while still connecting with the world.
