Urban Convergence

The paintings of Eric Ho are often about Hong Kong, his home city. In the past, he has rendered semi-abstract depictions of Victoria Harbour and the architectural perception of Kowloon. Urban Convergence is the artist’s expression of a newfound and deeper understanding of the city. Using a square composition, Ho invites viewers to experience the crisscrossing perspectives and depths where they wonder whether specific structures are residential buildings, street scenes, or shopping malls. In the ever-changing Hong Kong cityscape, Eric Ho’s painting goes back and forth in temporality and is his ode to his life in Hong Kong.
