His creations are inspired by various daily scenes, flora and fauna in the natural world, the cinema and moving images, his collection of toy models. All these are reimagined by the artist and rendered in bright colours and undulating lines on the canvas, presenting a fantasy space of the everyday that is nonetheless believable and relatable.

Group exhibitions include ‘New Gaze’ (Gallery EXIT, Hong Kong, 2023), ‘Sweeping Vistas’ (JPS Gallery, Hong Kong, 2023), ‘Landscape Long March’ (a.m.space, Hong Kong, 2023), ‘FUTURE MEMORIES Utopia Dystopia Nature’ (City University of Hong Kong, 2021), ‘Pathfinder’ (Kunstquartier Bethanien, Berlin, 2020), ‘HKFOREWORD 2019’ (10 Chancery Lane Gallery, Hong Kong, 2019).
