Bio
Jane Tsong works in the
intersection of landscape, art, and quotidian space. Her proposals for radical gardens, each growing out of extensive research into local cultural
history, have been finalists for public art commissions in Astoria, Oregon and the City of Ventura. She is currently a Master's of Landscape Architecture candidate at CSU Pomona.
Her 2006 proposal to substitute community garden plots for the institutionally maintained landscaping
around a new South Los Angeles Council District Office was recommended for a commission, but vetoed
by the city.
Her first permanent public artwork at the Brightwater Wastewater Treatment Plant in Seattle, opens this year and
includes two blessings written by poet Judith Roche.
She is currently working through Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs to design a public artwork for a swimming pool renovation in Reseda.
