We were lucky to catch up with Jet Wang recently and have shared our conversation below.

Jet, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today To kick things off, we’d love to hear about things you or your brand do that diverge from the industry standard

At our gallery, we take pride in our unique approach to showcasing and promoting artists that sets us apart from the industry standard. One of the key ways we diverge is through our focus on emerging and underrepresented artists. While many galleries primarily feature established and well-known artists, we actively seek out talented individuals who are just starting their artistic journey or belong to marginalized communities.

By giving these artists a platform to exhibit their work, we aim to challenge the traditional notion of what constitutes ‘valuable’ art and broaden the perspectives of our audience. This difference matters because it allows us to foster a diverse and inclusive art community, nurturing talent that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Let me share a story that illustrates the impact of our approach. Last year, we held an exhibition featuring a group of local immigrant artists who had faced numerous challenges in gaining recognition for their work. By providing them with an opportunity to showcase their art, we not only empowered them but also opened doors to new conversations and understanding within our community.

The exhibition garnered significant attention, and many visitors were moved by the powerful stories depicted in the artwork. This experience demonstrated that our divergence from the industry standard not only benefited the artists but also enriched the cultural landscape of our city.

Furthermore, we go beyond just showcasing art within the walls of our gallery. We actively collaborate with community organizations, schools, and local businesses to bring art to unconventional spaces. This approach allows us to reach a broader audience and make art more accessible to people who may not typically engage with it.

By taking these non-traditional approaches, we believe we can make a meaningful difference in the art world, supporting emerging artists and fostering a greater appreciation for diverse artistic expressions. Our commitment to divergence from the industry standard allows us to create a unique and inclusive gallery experience for both artists and art enthusiasts alike.

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers.

Thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself and share more about Gong Gallery. My name is Jet Wang, and I am the proud owner of this dynamic art space.
