About
A child’s perspective reveals moments of beauty and wonder amid daily life in Chinatown. “My own time spent walking the streets of Chinatown takes me into a space where the sights, sounds, and people — their lives and especially their struggles — feel deeply familiar,” says Cheung-Miaw. “A child, by contrast, has the ability to get absorbed in and find wonder in almost anything.” The mural depicts this working-class neighborhood — full of bustling restaurants, restaurant workers, crowded rooms, and public life — reflected through a child’s sensory experience of daily instances and encounters: the wings of a bee, the scent of a bowl of noodles, a cook taking a break, a bus driver waving hello, and the music from a gāo hú.
