"Stories of superstitious myths scared me as a child but I also had a sort of fascination and unquestioned reverence for the figures in these myths, an attitude that continues in my adulthood. Even though I have moved to Texas for over a decade, these superstitions still have some small power over me and the way I think.

The Cantonese Lion: This creature is often animated by two dancers wearing a single costume through choreographed acrobatic dances. Lion dances are often performed in celebration of Lunar New Year and the grand opening of businesses.
