BIOGRAPHY
Currently based in Hong Kong, Hilarie Hon is an emerging visual artist who mainly works with oil painting. Hon paints with a deeply personal approach, which depicts intense, surreally unsettling scenes with bold, contrasting colours and cartoonish characters. The works express her inner perspectives on conflicted social interactions, and evoking the emotions, sense of alienation, and helplessness felt during nightmares.
