Lot Essay

With an education influenced by the Suzhou and Zhejiang school of literati painting, Koon Wai Bong strives to preserve the aesthetics of the traditional ink and brush genre. He reworks the classics by instilling elements such as innovative spatial arrangement and novel presentation. His works often portray narrow or collaged view of landscape, which offer a restricted vision of a world that is shared by many in our metropolis. Koon Wai Bong received his training in Chinese painting at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and RMIT University in Australia. He is an artist as well as Assistant Professor at the Academy of Visual Arts of Hong Kong Baptist University.
