Lot Essay
“I loved the panda since I was a boy growing up just outside of D.C. and Ling-Ling and Hsing-Hsing were gifted to the Nixon administration and lived at the National Zoo.

Years later, when I was transitioning out of being known for collaborating, they seemed to represent me in a perfect way.”
