​BIOGRAPHY
​
KWONG Wing Kwan
Born in 1988, Hong Kong
 
Born in 1988, KWONG Wing Kwan received her BA in Fine Arts from The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2012. Integrating with Kwong's feelings of disturbance, fear, and the transience of life, her visceral works compress layers of objects and scenery imbued with narratives. These works can be seen as projections of her psyche. Her works  portrays contrasting themes of tenderness and violence, familiarity and distance between the interior and exterior, her recent works accentuate sceneries oscillating between day and night, in exploration of the concept of “home” and ones’ infatuation towards it.

​Kwong has participated in multiple exhibitions, including solo exhibitions titled “Good morning, sweet dreams. - Midnight Sun” (cadet capela, Paris, 2023), “Good morning, sweet dreams.” (Gallery EXIT, Hong Kong, 2021), "Suspending World" (Artify Gallery, Hong Kong, 2014), "Clear-air Turbulence" (Grotto Fine Art, Hong Kong, 2013). Group exhibitions include “Focal point 2" (Long Story Short, New York, 2023),”Asia NOW 9th Edition" (Paris, 2023), "Taxonomies of Imagination" (Make Room, Los Angeles, 2022), "Art Basel Hong Kong" (Hong Kong, 2021-2023), "Grotto 20th Anniversary" (Grotto, Hong Kong, 2021), "In/outward" (Link Gallery, Beijing, 2017), "ART MO International Art Fair" (The Venetian Macao Cotai Expo, Macau, 2014), and "Art Nova 100" (Touring exhibition sites, China, 2014).
