Tang Kwok-hin is a mixed media artist born in 1983 and raised in Hong Kong. He received his Master of Fine Arts in 2008 and Bachelor of Arts in 2006 from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, majoring in Fine Arts. His artistic practice begins with exploration in his background as an indigenous inhabitant. Soon it gradually steps on the path of reflecting his life journey and experiences, as well as the environment he lives in. Tang delves into the complex, contradictory, and struggling present, observing his surroundings to introspect himself, others, reality, imagination, and the old and new. His work reveals hidden emotions, concerns, and essences amid chaos, addressing themes such as growth, inheritance, locality, freedom, urbanization, consumption, nature, politics, norms, and existence. Tang has participated in numerous exhibitions, including the 15th International Architecture Exhibition at La Biennale di Venezia, the 7th Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture, and the 15th WRO Media Art Biennale. His works have been showcased in various international venues such as Ice Palace (Miami, USA), Osthaus Museum (Hagen, Germany), Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art (Manchester, UK), 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art (Sydney, Australia), Esplanade (Singapore), and many more. He has received several awards, including the first prize at the Hong Kong Contemporary Art Biennial in 2009, and was selected for the Sovereign Asian Art Prize in 2010, 2011, and 2014. Tang was also awarded the Young Artist Award by the Hong Kong Arts Development Awards in 2010 and a grant by the Asian Cultural Council in 2013. His works are held in collections by M+, Hong Kong Museum of Art, Hong Kong Heritage Museum, Deutsche Bank, Amelia Johnson Contemporary, and various private collectors across the globe.
