Alan creates abstract realist portraits that balance chaos and clarity. Using bold charcoal strokes and deliberate smudging, he unearths faces from disorder, blending raw emotion with structure. Inspired by his Hong Kong’s urban roots and London’s vibrant cultures, his work captures the tension of existence—where order meets freedom. He starts with intuitive marks, then sculpts with erasers and hands to reveal the subject’s soul. His art invites viewers to find themselves in the interplay of shadow and light, questioning the boundaries between chaos and connection in every expressive line.
