Kwong Kwok Wai
As a former journalist, Kwong Kwok Wai changed paths in becoming a painter, alongside the change of the city, from being a British colony to returning to Chinese sovereignty. Kwong quit his job as an executive producer in a TV news channel in 2018 so that he could fully devote his time to the pursuit of arts. As an alumni of Vermont Studio Center, his work has been featured in international and local exhibitions, online art projects and galleries. With abstractions suggestive of old places and past events, Kwong tries to build up a connection between history and contemporary art.
