Jacky Tao Hoi Chuen (b.1996 Hong Kong) obtained his BA in Fine Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2018 and is currently an MFA degree candidate at the same university.
Focusing on the creation of the Gong-bi figurative painting, Tao investigates the presentation and the way of viewing between two-dimensional and three-dimensional spaces, exploring and redefining the significance of “flatness” in traditional ink art in the context of contemporary art.
