Jasper Wong

Jasper Wong is an American artist based in Hawaii. He is known for his fun, fresh, cartoony art style and for his impressive murals. Aside from creating amazing art, he is also deeply committed to bringing artists together, particularly through the World Wide Walls festival (formerly POW! WOW!). His art and social initiatives have caught the eye of companies like Disney, Versace, Bloomingdales, and Microsoft. He has also been featured on the HB100 list by Hypebeast multiple times. Now, we can proudly add Face This to the list of organisations he has worked with.

“Children create art with a sense of freedom that is truly inspiring. They aren't burdened by worries, self-doubt, or the pressures that often come with adulthood. When they draw, paint, or build something, they do it purely for the joy of creating. It’s fun, spontaneous, and filled with imagination.”

Creating art without restraints

“Children create art with a sense of freedom that is truly inspiring. They aren't burdened by worries, self-doubt, or the pressures that often come with adulthood. When they draw, paint, or build something, they do it purely for the joy of creating. It’s fun, spontaneous, and filled with imagination.”

Makes you feel like home

The children from the SDN 4 Batu Putih school in Lombok were given the theme of ‘Makes you feel like home’ when creating their drawings. With this theme in mind, both Al and Aldi drew themselves on a boat. Jasper ponders: “I assume they spend a lot of time on the water, and it informs a big part of their lives.”
