February 2025 monthly meetup on topics for the Asian American community. Topic of this month is art. Are you an artist, a collector, a teacher or activist using art as a medium?
Fina Yeung
This month's featured artist is Fina Yeung. @veryfinaart.
My journey as an artist and environmental advocate began with my upbringing in Hong Kong and continued through my experiences on the Pacific Island of Guam. Surrounded by the beauty of nature, I was also confronted with significant environmental challenges, such as super typhoons, freshwater crises, and coral bleaching. These pressing issues inspired me to dedicate my creativity to a greater purpose. Each of my artworks tells a story of respect for the Earth and highlights the transformative power of recycled materials. Additionally, by collecting cardboard boxes from neighbors, friends, and businesses, my work has evolved into a community collaboration. I invite you to explore my artistic evolution from portrait paintings to innovative sculptures crafted from recycled cardboard.
Come visit us on Tuesday February 11th, 2025 between 6-8 pm to connect, communicate and collaborate.
Refreshments will be served and you are welcome to bring some to share.
