Qing (青) Books is a small, slow, independent publishing imprint run by Nancy Wu (吴青).

About This is a publishing-as-art practice that embraces print media as uniquely educational, dynamic, valuable, and useful forms of technology. The work explores location, space and time, Asianness, tools, and belonging. The resulting publications are emotional, personal, and raw.

Qing (青) Books operates out of an apartment in Brooklyn, NY, and occasionally participates in fairs and shows such as Brooklyn Art Book Fair and Ouchies! Feels Good.

Nancy Wu is a media artist, graphic designer, and independent publisher.
