"Seexeng is
a recognized artist and a passionate educator. His work is recognized nationally for its beauty, its power
and its mythic hold on meaning. Specifically, what it means to be Hmong in America and through time.
Seexeng’s work is a testament to the passion and perseverance of a community that has come a long ways to today
and continues on a road that will lead us to places we’ve never been."
- Kao Kalia Yang (Author of "The Latehomecomer", by Coffee House Press. 2008)
