WENDY MARUYAMA
Wendy Maruyama, furniture maker and educator, delves
into matters of ethnicity, gender, and world issues in her
studio in San Diego, CA. Born an American of Japanese
heritage, Maruyama satisfied her artistic passions by
becoming an important furniture maker in a field
dominated by men and in the process, overcame
challenges related to her deafness and disability.
Maruyama is able to translate her complex identity
into beautiful yet challenging work.
