artist statement

I always consider myself a "designist" - a hybrid of designer and artist. I am rooted in design thinking and fascinated by the abstract notion of art. 

My paintings are simple, graphic and conceptual. They are the result of accumulated ideas and feelings from my observation in daily life. They lie somewhere between logical and senseless. 

If form follows function, my work of art would be visual follows thoughts.

about the artist

Chi Fun Wong was born in Hong Kong and was deeply influenced by the blend of traditional and modern culture. He completed his Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration at the Parson School of Design in New York City, refining his conceptual thinking and visual language, which are now central elements in his art and design work. 

After graduating, he established littlefactory.com as his creative platform to materialize original ideas through tangible design creations. His design pieces garnered attention from international media outlets such as The New York Times and The Guardian and were featured in renowned stores like the MoMA Design Store.

In 2018, Chi Fun relocated to Canada and has dedicated his focus to art projects. He showcased his work at the Other Art Fair Brooklyn in 2019. He was selected to participate in the Art Rental & Sales program at the Vancouver Art Gallery in 2021. His inaugural solo exhibition was held in 2022 in collaboration with the Art Rental & Sales program at the Vancouver Art Gallery. Currently, he resides and works in Vancouver, Canada.
