Lewis LAU

Lewis LAU

Lewis LAU (b.1988) is born and based in Hong Kong. He graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the Department of Fine Arts (BA in 2010 and MFA in 2012).
Always experiences the loneliness and insecure in different stage of life just like most of us nowadays, he transformed this status into oil painting. He paints from photographs which he finds suitable momentarily, but instead of copying them directly, he has chosen only the elements that are important to his feeling or memory, and captured the space with a symbolic object to represent the strolling life in the city.
