About the artwork
Max Kong's approach in creating abstraction reaches the extremities when mixed with fluid movement but at the same time with completely materialistic texture, creating three dimensional effects that leads the audience to feel the vibration within the surrounding environment of the painting. Waves of motions and movements that expand and evolve into directions that vibrate the whole atmosphere surrounding the painting.
