Wong Shun yu (b.1994) is a Hong Kong Chinese ink artist. Wong was graduated from the Visual Arts Department of Hong Kong Baptist University in 2018; and is currently furthering study at the Beijing Academy of Fine Arts, majoring experimental arts.

Wong’s creation is mainly based on the theme of landscape. Wong had a keen interest in Chinese urban legends and religious paintings since he was a child, and he came into contact with different religious arts, such as Tibetan Buddhism and Taoism painting patterns when growing up. Being raised in this atmosphere, his works are permeated with a sense of history and mystery. His experience also allows him to understand literati painting from the perspective of Chinese legends and religions, and from Chinese literati painters such as Su Shi, Dong Qichang, and Wang Wei, where they showed their ideal form of erudition and expression through art and culture . Wong also appreciates the importance attached to the quality of painting in contemporary Western art. His blended pathways has become his pursuit of ink painting creation.

王順瑜 (b.1994) 是一位香港水墨畫家,在2018年畢業於香港浸會大學視覺藝術系,現在正就讀北京中央美術學院實驗藝術學院作研究生。他的創作主要以風景為主題。王氏自小對中國的都市傳說和宗教繪畫有著濃厚的興趣,並在成長中接觸到不同的宗教藝術,如藏傳佛教和道教的繪畫模式。在這種氛圍的成長下,使他的作品瀰漫著一種歷史感和神秘感。他的經歷亦讓他能以中國的都市傳說、宗教及中國文人畫家 (如蘇軾、董其昌和王維等)的角度去理解中國文人畫──一種由中國文人畫家透過藝術與文化去展示其博學與表達的一種理想形式。另一方面,王氏亦欣賞當代西方藝術對繪畫的質的重視,於是這亦成為他對自己於水墨畫創作上的追求。
