Mak2 (Mak Ying Tung)

is a conceptual artist. Her work contemplates 21st century issues through the study of philosophy, art history, culture, shifting socio-political environments, the internet, and new technology. The aesthetic experience she crafts is bound by the dualism of humor and intense inquisitiveness. She creates, installations, paintings, drawings, video work, youtube videos, standup comedy routines, and Instagram filters.

“Mak2 is a witness of our society, pushing boundaries and asking questions so we can better understand the evolution of our time. Like Cezanne, Duchamp and Warhol before her, she is bound to be an important link to the future of art history,” says Pascal de Sarthe, the founder and owner of DE SARTHE.
