Eurasian artist Sophia Hotung suffered from autoimmune diseases at the age of 16 and could only walk with mobility aids. Returning to the world outside her bedroom as Hong Kong began emerging from its first year of the pandemic, Sophia discovered a newfound appreciation for the city's vibrant energy and settings. The excitement of movement sparked a vision of dancing in the streets and celebrating the once mundane thoroughfares with exuberance.

Sophia’s latest collection, "Choreopolis”, featuring 10 original artworks presented in 24x24 inch circular formats, along with other formats, will be showcased to the public at Wyndham Social from March 14 to April 28. "Choreopolis" serves as a compelling reflection on the intricate roles we play in society, as passers-by are transformed into members of high-octane musical theatre ensembles. Drawing inspiration from the thoroughfares of Hong Kong, Hotung celebrates the joy of traversing everyday locations, infusing her artwork with the pulsating rhythm of crosswalks, roads, transport links, and walkways. Through fast-paced backgrounds, dynamic dancers, and a recurring motif of circles and spheres, Hotung masterfully captures the essence of movement and spontaneity. Presented by a|n Gallery in Collaboration with Wyndham Social
