about
Alvin Mak is a digital artist based in Hong Kong. He is trained as a mechanical engineer, but later shifts focus to visual art. He has been creating works for hospitality projects since 2009. His artworks can be seen in hotels and offices throughout Asia.
The artistic journey of Alvin is a long string of what-ifs. He plays with a range of mediums from photography, digital collage, sculpture design to digital and video art. He runs his experiments through numerous re-iterations in the pursuit of new aesthetics and methods.
Most of his artworks delve into abstract emotional and cerebral concepts. Some re-create an atmosphere to cherish a mood, while others examine the formation and evolution of ideas. The works take the viewers through a journey from confusion, adaptation to discovery.
