Hong Kong-born, England-educated Kurt Tong King-fung has been exploring themes of identity, this city and life among the diaspora. His large-scale exhibition, “The Queen, the Chairman and I” (2009-12), developed as a reminder to his young daughters to appreciate their cultural heritage and identity, has been shown around the world.
As it expanded into a book project, it also, according to the artist, “spoke to the millions of Chinese who have escaped war, famine and communism – or anyone in the world who has gone through migration and displacement”.
