Kingsley Ng
Kingsley Ng is an interdisciplinary artist and designer with a focus on conceptual and site-specific projects. He believes that art helps us to mediate our environment, whether as a viewer or participator. His past projects include Twenty-Five Minutes Older, a commission by Art Basel in 2017 which took the audience on a moving tram, and After the Deluge, presented in an underground stormwater tank the size of 40 Olympic-sized swimming pools in Hong Kong in 2018.
Ng received postgraduate training at Le Fresnoy – National Studio of Contemporary Arts in France, where he graduated with the highest honours. He then obtained an MSc in Advanced Sustainable Design from the University of Edinburgh and a BFA in New Media from Ryerson University. He is currently Associate Professor of the Academy of Visual Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University.
His works have been featured in notable exhibitions and international venues such as the MACRO, Rome Italy; Contemporary Art Centre of South Australia, Parkside, Australia; Guangzhou Triennial, China; Land Art Mongolia Biennial, Mongolia; Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale, Japan; IRCAM at Centre Pompidou, Paris, France; Pavilion Lille Europe, Shanghai Expo, China; InterAccess Electronic Media Arts Centre, Toronto, Canada; and the Hong Kong Museum of Art and Art Basel in Hong Kong.
