Glad to finish “Awakening”, a poetry film, and it has been released on YouTube!!!

“Awakening”, a poetry film inspired by public art in Mississauga now has been released. The short film was produced and directed by me with my film crew members Sarah Hei and Roy Marques. The film covers more than 10 pieces of public art in Mississauga and reveals the city’s unique history and culture with beautiful natural scenes. This project won a 2023 Micro Matchmaker grant from Mississauga Arts Council and was supported by local art groups and businesses. Here is the film link for you to enjoy: 

Here I want to thank the Mississauga Arts Council, the Mississauga Nation, Triple J Canada, and Kaideed Education again. Check more about this project.
