Ho Sin Tung (Chinese: 何倩彤; born 1986) is a visual artist who lives and works in Hong Kong.
Background
[edit]Ho was born in Hong Kong, and grew up in Tai Po before moving further north near Lok Ma Chau.[1] Ho began her artistic training at the age of three when she attended workshops in the studio of Hong Kong painter Gaylord Chan (陳餘生). She graduated with a BFA from the Fine Arts Department of The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2008.[1] Ho participated in SeMA Mediacity Biennale Seoul (2014) and the 9th Shanghai Biennale (2012), and received Hong Kong Arts Development Award 2012[2] – Award for Young Artist and Hong Kong Contemporary Art Award 2012.
Ho’s work is multidisciplinary and cross-media. She uses a variety of texts and materials and weaves impressions of varied objects, stories, movies, as well as personal memories and imaginations into various forms of representations. She may use pencil, graphite and watercolour as art media in combination with found and ready-made images such as stickers, maps, charts, and rubber-stamps to create artwork.[3] She also creates video art and process-led projects that interpret and extend different narrative frameworks. The cinema is frequent referenced in her work, and literature and film culture are also sources of inspiration.[3][4][5]
Ho is represented by Hanart TZ Gallery in Hong Kong and Chambers Fine Art in New York and Beijing.
