Let There Be Light contains nearly 200 of John Fung’s works, grouped into three sections that broadly signify a stage in his artistic practice.

 

’Wander’ shows his early tendency towards the documentary format.  ‘Dust’ shows a turning point towards critical, surrealist mirages.  ‘Asway’ shows Fung’s turn to abstraction with nuanced, ultra-close perspectives and ethereal atmospheres.

 

This mapping of keywords explains his motivations, techniques, ways of seeing, states of mind, and aesthetic choices.
