[THE HOLLOW BEAST] - “We are all hollow and vulnerable beasts refuse to admit our fragility and utmost desire for love and affection.”
Struggle to admit and embrace our pain, pushing away your loved ones and too embarrassed to show our true self. Maybe it’s part of the human nature and a vicious cycle you constantly find yourself experiencing, yet often we are too afraid to acknowledge the truth. We are all fragile and vulnerable beings and honesty isn’t as common as it used to be.
Always on the move, whether it’s with a marker or with running shoes. @kristopherh is known for his bold black-and-white scenes, drawn entirely by hand. Catch him (if you can) at ALL CAPS 2025! 🏃♂️

[THE PEACE PART3] - (Purchase link available on profile) I have always struggled to find ways to express my feelings and emotions thoroughly without the use of drawings and murals.. Living in the modern society and dealing with people from different backgrounds makes us over calculate our attitude towards people. Artwork then becomes a solution to show the audience who we truly are.
The general idea behind this print is a continuation of two pieces of artwork I did in the past. They work as a series of work to tell the story of my personal experiences and realization towards my growth as a human being through different media and platforms. It is an honest and unfiltered confession of me as a person and also demonstrates my weaknesses and often helplessness as an artist. Finding peace in both living in the society and living as my own has always been my constant struggle. Life has not been easy, yet it’s full of surprises and love. It’s something that I cherish and feel grateful to be part of. Hence the title of the project - “The Peace Part. 3”. Being a continuation of an illustration (Part 1) I did in 2021 and a mural piece (Part 2) in 2022.
‘Finding peace’ has been a theme I have been working on lately. Making peace with my insecurities and personal weaknesses. Creating something which is both impactful yet peaceful. Capturing that gracefulness, quietness and most important of all, the gentleness of humanity. The one lesson we are all learning everyday, how to become a better person, how to be more gentle to each other.
Thank you for all the support and hard work @yumanng@alexandercheng_@day321 and last but not least @erkashba . Without your help this project will never come to fruition especially I am not the easiest person to work with lol. Thank you and love you all. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
[THE SYNCHRONY + THE SWIM + THE LOST EMBRACE] - Latest mural collaborating with @fishmarket.thebottleandsteak , a seafood restaurant located in Kennedy Town, Hong Kong. I have painted several murals for their restaurants and as usual I was given total freedom to explore whatever theme I see fit with the place, and as the name suggests it would be nice to paint something related to sea life or marine animals, with a twist.
The Fishing trilogy is a series of small murals painted with a marine life theme, yet as usual I don‘t find it interesting if the subjects are simply painted without a twist, or it would just become another soulless decoration in a place which people will overlook. Each piece was painted with a small twist on the subject, giving each one of them an extra layer of context while still fitting the theme.
Once again, thank you for your faith and confidence in my work and allowing me to have total control over the project. All the best in the year of 2026!

[THE BURNING] - Originally commissioned back in 2024 during the production of the TV series. I was approached by @oceanlaugh_pch earlier that year at a studio drink to see if I would be interested in creating a special art piece for his novel “Never Drink Alone”, which will later be produced as a TV series “存酒人 - BEFORE THE END”. Fascinated by his story, I was tasked to collaborate with the art direction of the production Sellwa. The main content she wanted for the artwork is to create something that echoes hell, suffering and fire and I took the opportunity to create my interpretation of the themes and my chapter of the story.
The artpiece centered around the idea of ”Burning“, the idea of how our past memories are constantly influencing, or even torturing us, how we are constantly haunted and restrained by our trauma and memories. The sensation of the imaginary burning sensation constantly burning us, how we struggled to move on and embrace our past, how insignificant we feel from time to time when trauma hits. An emotional hell that we self inflicted to ourselves. The struggle of not being able to forgive oneself or others, and being burnt and tortured by our past. A never ending suffering of self blame and mistrust, that we judge our values and if we are worthwhile for love, all self inflicted, a hell that we create in our minds for ourselves.
Thank you @oceanlaugh_pch and @kubricklo and their trusts and allowed to go personal on this project. The amazing @wonderwall.today for aligning the project with the art direction team @sellwalok_uto@cheng.kayee and everyone who was involved in this project. I had a great time and hope you all enjoyed the artpiece I created as much as I do.
[THE BURNING] - Have been waiting for the right moment to disclose this special project commissioned by a ViuTV TV series “存酒人 - BEFORE THE END”
“It is your memory that truly burns, let it burn and you burn with it”
[THE GAZE] - The third mural project commissioned by @asura_thai for their newly opened top tier restaurant @phaya_asura located Kai Tak Sports Park dining cove.
Every mural painted for the restaurant centred around the image of the Thai Giant guardian - Yaksha, and every time it’s my responsibility to bring something fresh to the table. This piece serves as my personal confession, how I see myself as the protagonist to suppress and control my inner anger, fierceness and aggressiveness, and look for the peacefulness I long for.
The mural is splitted into two parts, the wall mural and the window mural. The wall mural depicts a Yaksha holding a lotus with the ghostly roaring tiger in the background, painted with my signature overlapping style, symbolises the protagonist’s hidden anger and aggressiveness while still searching for his peace. The window mural acts as a reflection and the goal of the protagonist’s ideal state of peacefulness and calmness, the transcendence of self he is longing for. The two parts are gazing at each other, symbolizing how one is constantly facing his dream while struggling to overcome his inner destructiveness. This mural is my personal confession and testimony of how I understand my inner insecurity and destructiveness can explode and hurt the people I love, while I am still in search for my inner peace and make peace with my vulnerabilities.
“What I am is not what you see, what I do is not what I am but what I seek to become” is a way to express my work of being my way to confess my insecurity and my journey to become a better human being.
Once again thank you for the trusts for once again allowing me to go free style with the project. All the best with work and can’t wait to work on another piece with you all.
