Maggie Wong is a visual artist and educator based in Boston, MA. Maggie uses sculpture, publishing, installation, workshops, and social engagement to pursue where love undergirds study and touches political, familial, social, archival, and object forms. As a teacher, she is interested in the interplay between informal and experiential education. Maggie is a lecturer at Brandeis University and the Gallery Coordinator at the Wagner Foundation. Her exhibition history includes exhibiting at deiner, the Chinese American Museum of Chicago, Iceberg Projects, Mana Contemporary Chicago, Comfort Station, Annas Projects, take care (LA), Temple Contemporary, YBCA, and 99cent Plus, while her work has been written about in Boston Art Review, The Chicago Reader, ArtForum, and Sixty Inches from Center. Her writing has been published by Yale University Press, Viral Ecologies, and the Journal of Art Practice. 

Maggie’s sculptural practice accounts for the extra-sculptural possibilities of objects and archives. By way of collage, assemblage, and installation, Maggie’s work deconstructs to build meaning like a stack of toy blocks, assembling and falling into a relational history rather than a fixed narrative. This approach acknowledges the impossibility of articulating an entire cultural or political inheritance, embracing Angela Davis’s idea that “legacies of past struggles are not static.”
