Ng Yin Lam, Ann (b. 1991) was born in Mainland China and moved to Hong Kong when she was 8 years old. In 2015, she received her B.A from Academy of Visual Arts, Hong Kong Baptist University and attained the “Western Painting Young Talent Award” in the same year. In 2018, she had her artist residency at Tenjinyama Art Studio, Sapporo. In 2019, she moved her studio to Shenzhen to experience the life of the migrant workers. Now she lives and works in Hong Kong. 

Ng’s creative perspective revolves around her fascination with history and human geography; she regards painting as a specimen of time. By layering mineral pigments rich in historical resonance, she builds a textured accumulation of strata. Between the sedimentation and exfoliation of each layer, she seeks to compress and extend time simultaneously, allowing history to transcend mere pastness and become a beam of light that illuminates and answers the present.

Selected group exhibitions include, “The City Never Sleeps” (Abu Dhabi Art Fair, SC Gallery, Manarat Al Saadiyat, Abu Dhabi, 2023); “Women’s Freestyle” (SC Gallery, Hong Kong, 2023); “Confluence of Voices“(Artecal Foundation, Pao Galleries, Hong Kong Arts Centre, 2023); “Once Upon a Time” (SC Gallery, Hong Kong, 2022); “F.F.” (Pao Galleries, Hong Kong Arts Centre, 2020).
