Visit with Adrian Kay Wong
In preparation for his exhibition at Art Central Hong Kong, Adrian Kay Wong gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the making of his new work.
With a vibrant and deliberate palette, Adrian's color choice and compositions present encapsulated moments that have a universal feeling of intimacy and nostalgia.
His paintings are distinctively personal through the portrayal of narratives often sourced from his own adolescence.
By investigating these sentimentalities with a measured simplicity, Adrian's paintings glorify the ordinary and reimagine the everyday.
Time has always been a continued exploration in my work, the most literal examples presented as visual motifs like a clock on the wall or a particular position of the sun.

Recently, I’ve grown particularly interested in the granular – the moment to moment – where single smaller-than-life actions become momentous or dramatic.
