Photographer: Gordon Cheung

Gordon Cheung is of Hong Kong origin and born in London 1975 where he lives and works. He graduated from the Royal College of Art, 2001 and has since regularly exhibited internationally. Cheung’s multi-media art captures the hallucinations between the virtual and actual realities of a
globalised world oscillating between Utopia and Dystopia. Spray paint, oil, acrylic, pastels, stock listings and ink collide in his works to form epic techno-sublime vistas.

Cheung's works are in international collections including the Hirshhorn Museum, Whitworth Museum, ASU Art Museum, The New Art Gallery Walsall, Knoxville Art Museum, Hiscox Collection, Progressive Arts Collection, UBS Collection and the Gottesman Collection.
