Adrian Kay Wong captures encapsulated moments that offer a focused lens on intimate, familiar, and deeply human connections. His work delves into the relationship between negative space and figure, segmenting his surfaces with shapes that are both collectively representational and individually abstract. By employing an extreme flatness that equalizes the ground and figure, Wong shifts the focus between the primary subject and its contextual elements, creating a balanced visual dynamic. The paintings carry a distinct personal quality, often drawing on narratives from his own adolescence. Through a measured simplicity, Wong elevates the ordinary, reimagining the everyday with a sense of reverence. Born and raised in the East San Francisco Bay Area, Wong now lives and works in Los Angeles. He earned his BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2013.
