Cho Wing Ki (b. 1989, Hong Kong) is an alumna of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts. Specialising in oil painting and printmaking, her artistic practice primarily explores the minutiae of urban life and the people within her surroundings. Through her keen observations and delicately detailed works, Cho leads us into the daily lives of ordinary city dwellers and the role of the artist within various groups and communities. Her artworks aim to share the transformative power of art-making and engage with the challenges faced by the community she is passionate about.
Cho has been showcased in galleries across Hong Kong, Korea and Israel. Recent exhibitions include Good Night, Sleep Tight (solo, 2021) at ACO Art Space, Hong Kong, Cho Cho Chit Chit (solo, 2015) at HKICC Lee Shau Kee School of Creativity, Hong Kong, and Box of LeeLeeLooLoo (group, 2023) at WURE AREA, Hong Kong. Beyond her exhibitions, Cho is also active in community art initiatives: from 2022–23 she was the artist-in-residence for the Jockey Club Artistry Creative Ageing Project. Other community art initiatives she’s participated in include The Practice of Everyday Life (2020), the Hok Hok Zaap Programme (2019–20), and Sparkle! Counting the Days (2018).
Cho is also a member of Prinhow, a printmaking collective that works with marginalised groups to address social issues.
