Bio
Teresa Leung is a Hong Kong-based artist who responds to a variety of issues and situations―some of which includeinclude “baffling realities” that are dangerous to talk about explicitly, the possibilities of urban non-places, art-as-an-experience, International Art English, and "Soviet urban fabric" in post-soviet countries. The latter led Leung to join artist-in-residence programs in Armenia’s capital city Yerevan previously, and continue their exploration after.
Leung's work received a Jury Special Mention in the 60Seconds Festival in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2021. In 2012, the artist was among the 40 finalists selected from more than 3,100 entries in the Contemporary Talents competition organized by the Fondation Francois Schneider in France.
During the pandemic, the Hong Kong Arts Development Council commissioned Leung to design and manage a series of city-wide art workshops under the Council's Arts in the City Scheme in 2021-2022.
The artist exhibited works previously in various cities across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
