Hmong Artist Interviews

This page is dedicated towards written interviews that I conducted with Hmong artists from around the world. The interviews ask the artists about their upbringings, how they got into art, and other questions relating to their work.

I started these interviews mainly because I wished there was something like this when I was first starting out as an artist. Growing up Hmong and choosing the path of an artist wasn’t easy. I didn’t know many other artists out there who were Hmong or know of any artists who I could connect to at a cultural level. By conducting these interviews, I hope to share their upbringings, struggles, and paths to becoming an artist.

Speaking of Hmong artists, if you would like to find out more, here is a list of Hmong Artists that I have compiled!
