As an artist , I believe that art allows me to combine my creativity with personal experiences to express my emotions and thoughts . Heritage and culture are very important aspects to my growth and evolution as a person . Growing up in Hong Kong , I have always been mesmerised by the fusion of Chinese culture and the growing influence of Western culture in this small yet bustling city . Keeping this in mind , I wanted to showcase the urban landscape of Hong Kong as well as the everyday lives of citizens through my art as a way to highlight the influence my culture has on my life .
This series of works is quite personal and raw : reflecting my emotional connection to my cultural background as well as meaningful events in my life . In this exhibition , I was able to freely express myself through various mediums such as painting , printmaking and sculpting . Through experimentation , I have come to love combining different mediums when creating art . Incorporating more traditional art practices with modern day technology reflects Hong Kong : the merging of many cultures . Revolving around the theme of urban landscape and everyday life in Hong Kong , I hope to share the beauty of my hometown through this exhibition .
