Journey to the East Exhibition

The concept of the title of this exhibition, “Journey to the East“, comes from the well-known Chinese novel “Journey to the West“. This exhibition is to show the unique oriental style of Chinese art, also to explore and spread Chinese culture, in a positive, optimistic and colorful way.

This is the first solo exhibition of TikKa, which marks the changing of his own style. The exhibition solely presents in hand drawings instead of computer graphics, and on oriental style instead of the prior western style, which is very different from his previous works.

The SoHa figure is limited to 50 and comes with a wooden box. Made of polystone, it costs $90USD and is sized at approximately 21 cm H X 17.5 cm W x 11.5 cm D.

Tikka Ng was born in Hong Kong and explores Chinese folk tales and Myth. Chinese motifs and elements are reconstructed, injecting new imagination into familiar tales.
