To me, contemporary art is…
• Something looks good and with meaning• Encourages audience to think• Vary in medium(e.g. painting ->new media)

Otto Ng’s view
“Anything with story is art.”• Concern with ideas and explorations, rather
than solely the aesthetic• Reflection of society (Invader incident)• Technology based (LED lighting ,high-tech
installation…)

HK in his mind
• Conservative society• Everything is durable• Art is not for public• Not inspiring
