Born in London in 1975 to Chinese parents, contemporary multimedia artist Gordon Cheung has crafted a distinctive approach to art that merges virtual and actual realities. His work explores existential questions about human existence within civilizations whose histories are written by victors. Cheung critically examines global capitalism and its mechanisms of power, questioning their impact on our perceptions of identity, territory, and belonging. His narratives are filtered through the lenses of culture, mythology, religion, and politics, creating dreamlike urban surreal worlds that reflect his hybrid identity.
