WAI Pong-yu was born in Hainan Island, China in 1982. At the age of 2, he moved to Hong Kong with his parents. He graduated from the Fine Arts Department of The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2006. Wai has developed his own oeuvre with ink from ballpoint pen on paper, spinning the thread of his emotion and mind continuously as one line as it multiplies in rhizomatic manner. His subject matter often relates to the notion of the cosmos, time, nature, across the fields of juxtapositions and metaphysical forms. He lives and works in Hong Kong.

Wai’s works have been collected internationally by public museums and institutions including the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco and the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford. His recent exhibitions include his collaborative project with Hung Fai in ‘Same Line Twice’ Grotto Fine Art, Hong Kong, 2017. Solo exhibitions include ‘Moment of Truth - The Synergy of Ink’ (2013) and ‘Ceaseless Lines’ (2009) both at Grotto Fine Art, Hong Kong. His works have also been shown at Art Basel (2014 - 2021), Ink Asia (2015 - 2019), Fine Art Asia (2014 - 2021), Asia Week, New York (2015) and SCOPE, New York (2012, 2013).
