It's relaxing to be an artist.

Artist Bio

Cassara Wong (b. 1988) is an artist based in the Bay Area. Since joining NIAD Art Center in 2022, she has broadened her art practice to include painting, ceramics, printmaking, and fiber arts. Her illustrative paintings and works on paper feature cute animals, floral designs, and pop culture characters. In clay, Wong sets the stage for these creatures: her fully-furnished, miniature ceramic dioramas and replicas of domestic objects invite playful interactions.

Cassara Wong’s work has been showcased in group exhibitions at Sonoma State University, the NIAD Annex Gallery, and the Oakland Museum of California.
