Kiang Malingue is pleased to present “I See You There”, Yeung Hok Tak’s second exhibition with the gallery after “What A Big Smoke Ring” in 2022. Showcasing nineteen new paintings at the gallery’s Tin Wan 12/F space, Yeung balances lyricism and cynicism on canvas by depicting a variety of characters, landscapes and stories that are nostalgic, amusing and affectionate.
In the last fifteen years, Yeung has developed a unique painting practice that incorporates his rich experience as a comic book author. Dealing with a variety of subjects—such as absurd turns of events on the streets, lonely and defiant figures against epically silent backgrounds, or fantasy stories and fables in which animals and action figures play prominent roles—Yeung’s exuberant paintings explore intimate emotions, treasured memories, and complex relationships between people and places.
Opening: Sat, 21 Sept, 3 – 6 PM
Gallery address: 12/F, Blue Box Factory Building, 25 Hing Wo Street, Aberdeen
