Yiu Chi Leung's art is created mostly through drawings, installation, photography and mixed media. His creative work highlights the controversy surrounding the purpose of our living today, as well as the impact of technology on the wider society, the living culture and the environment. It also reveals the sarcasm, coldness, and emptiness in our society today. Through ground research and personal life events, his art work expresses a realistic vision of the world reflected under a mind of self-consciousness and freedom. It also exhibits his hope for the future.
