Known for his detailed urban landscapes and vibrant colors, Wong captured the spirit and energy of New York City's Lower East Side during a transformative period. His paintings and murals not only depicted the city's graffiti culture but also explored themes of identity, race, and urban life, making him a vital contributor to the contemporary art scene.
