Swiss wannabe artist Lamma-Gung, an (almost) professional photographer and overqualified Web guru, has tinkered with computer art for 25 years.
As a featured artist at The Cyan Studio in Hong Kong, he’ll exhibit all-new artworks in a special exhibition from 2-6 p.m. on November 11. He created them by tinkering with countless photos of Lamma Island people.
Lamma-Gung has exhibited in group shows, created computer-art calendars and magazine covers, won computer-art prizes and held solo exhibitions. Twenty-two years ago, while studying in Zurich and babysitting mainframe computers in the IBM Research Lab, he met an enchanting Hong Kong-Chinese lady on the Internet. So he moved to Hong Kong and married her.
Happily, Lamma-Gung has found time to renew his passion for photography and artworks. Due to a self-professed lack of manual artistic skills, he conspires to use his PC to do most of the work.
