‘Bruce Lee Ascending’ makes its debut at UW
More than 150 people gathered to listen to speeches and watch lion dancers bless the permanent art installation “Bruce Lee Ascending” during its official debut Tuesday at the University of Washington’s Odegaard Undergraduate Library.
Han Edward So Eckelberg, a current graduate student within UW’s Communication Leadership program, made and installed the artwork during the 2020 winter quarter while studying art and American Ethnic Studies as an undergraduate student.
