Sunshine Gao
Sunshine Gao was born in China and raised in Indiana and Kentucky. Once, they studied moral philosophy and ecology; cooked noodles; and sold produce. Now, they draw stories examining home, the heart, everyday ethics--and the frailty of the narratives we tell about them. In spite of everything, they believe the world can be made a beautiful place.
