Han Edward So Eckelberg - ECKEL漢TECH
I am Han Edward So Eckelberg, born in Seattle of Chinese (Cantonese) and German descent, living in South Seattle’s Beacon Hill neighborhood. In the Asian enclave of Beacon Hill, I grew up surrounded by many people I called “aunts,” “uncles,” and “cousins.” For three decades, my zip code was among the most diverse in the United States. My neighborhood’s cultural diversity fostered my passion for the arts, advocacy for the community, and pride in my heritage.
My video, design, and photography work has been published by numerous entities while attending the University of Washington, including the Seattle Times, Nike, Starbucks, Southeast Asian American Education Coalition, OCA Asian Pacific Advocates of Greater Seattle, and the Seattle Sounders FC. I aspire to express and share my philosophy and passion through every artistic piece/statement I make.
I graduated from the University of Washington with degrees in Art (Photo/Media), American Ethnic Studies, and minors in Oceania and Pacific Islander Studies and Diversity. In 2023, I completed my Master of Communication in Communities & Networks with Communication Leadership at the University of Washington.
I am greatly inspired by local artists, including MXT Visuals, Kcoyi, EddieJJen with Xuanda, and Blue Scholars. I focus on visually exploring issues and topics relevant to the Asian American experience, as well as issues of mobility and gentrification around South Seattle. I often incorporate my background in martial arts and American Ethnic Studies to produce video-narratives, social commentary, critiques, and unity. I represent my community, my heritage, my Ancestors; my home.
