Tung-pang uses traditional (oil, acrylic, charcoal, pencil) and non-traditional (nails, sand, plywood) materials to produce beautiful, thought-provoking pieces.

These resonate with the viewer long after their first encounter. Tung-pang currently lives and works in Hong Kong and Beijing. He explores the intricate relationship between objects and materials. All of Lam’s works are given a touch of humanity that makes them more approachable.

Lam studied Fine Art at The Chinese University of Hong Kong before undertaking an MA at Central St Martins College of Art, London in 2004.

Tung-pang has been awarded numerous scholarship and awards, including Arts Scholarship from Hong Kong Arts Development Council in 2003.

In 2005 he won the “Hunting Art Prizes Young Artist of the Year” in U.K. and Hong Kong Contemporary Art Biennial Awards in 2009. He has exhibited extensively world-wide and has work in many private and public collections in the UK, USA & Hong Kong, including the Hong Kong Museum of Art.
