Sugar Land Quan Am

Sugar Land Quan Am

The Sugar Land Quan Âm is a cast concrete statue in Chùa Việt Nam in Sugar Land, Texas, just outside of Houston. The sculpture depicts the bodhisattva Avalokiteśvara in female form standing on a lotus pedestal. She may also be commonly known by her Chinese name Guanyin. It was created by sculptor Mai Chi Kim, who wanted to work on a bigger project after the temple had commissioned several smaller statues from her.
