||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Paulina Wong's lifelong passion in art could be dated back to the sixties, when she was taking private classes by local artists including Ng Po-wan (1965-1970), and afterwards, Chen Hok-shu (1971-1973), who cultivated her interest in traditional Western art and equipped her with a store of painting techniques. After graduating at the University of Hong Kong in 1972, Paulina served as a social worker, and later, administrator in the Hong Kong government for two decades. |

| Despite a long departure from the art world, art always has a place in her heart. It was, however, not until 1991, after immigrating to the United States, that she resumed her artistic endeavour. Paulina went on to pursue her studies in Studio Art at the University of California, Irvine, which gave her an opportunity to explore new dimensions and experiment with multi-media techniques. Exposure to contemporary visual art in the west has fine-tuned her perception, and expanded her visual horizons. Throughout the years, her style has evolved from realism to minimalism to conceptualism, and now, to abstract expressionism. No matter how far she goes, there is a colorful edge pertaining to her works, expressed in a kaleidoscope of forms and thoughtful compositions. |
