As a member of Generation Z who grew up in the age of the internet and social media, Ella Wong has always wondered what it means to be human and whether technology will replace human ingenuity in the future. She began to seek answers through painting, a medium she believes to be most apt in expressing human creativity, to explore the absurdity of existence in the modern world. Her choice of painting many layers of colours lend a rich, thick texture which transforms her paintings into three-dimensional artworks. Ella invites viewers to join her in redefining painting and using a dark sense of humour to challenge the status quo of modern life.
Ella Wong (b. 1999 ) is pursuing her Bachelor of Arts from the Academy of Visual Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University.
