Combining digital creative materials and classical painting techniques with effusive yet knowing and precise focused, his paintings maintain a powerful tension between opposing aesthetic forces-expression and knowledge, control and spontaneity, savagery and wit, urbanity and primitivism-while providing satiric commentary on the oppressive realities of the predicament of Generation Internet, homegrown hongkonger's local-culture vesus Traditional Chinese culture, and The Hong Kong's post-handover history. In his dynamically designed compositions, gracefully detailed figures and innocent faces are incise against fields that juxtaposed with portraits, chinese calligraphy, and sometimes cgi.
