Beyond what has been provided herein, we have no additional information regarding this artwork., The works in this unusual exhibit are by California artist Ed Wong. He was chosen to be artist-in-residence at Eastern Oregon State Hospital in Pendleton out of 28 applicants who applied from all parts of the country. The 4-month residency was made possible through funds from Oregon's 1% for Art in Public Places program. Ed Wong proposed to do a series of figure studies of the residents. Over the 4 months that he lived and worked in the hospital, Ed became friends with many people; he painted them in everyday situations and came to know each one as an individual. Ed's work is compassionate, immediate, and powerful. It helps to celebrate the differences in people and reinforce each personality.
