Chi Kiu So (aka Jack So)

I keep searching my true identity and real self via art. First place winner of the Hong Kong Liberty Art Prize 2023. The latest work "Nursing Home" was selected to exhibit in the 199th Royal Scottish Academy Annual Exhibition (2025). For purchase of works, please contact Zarin Gallery in Finland.

Selected Works

Nursing Home

Many years ago, I frequently visited a local nursing home to see my father-in-law, and the sights, sounds, and emotions I experienced there continue to inspire this work. This work was selected to exhibit in the 199th Royal Scottish Academy Annual Exhibition (2025).

HongKonger

This work won the First place winner of Hong Kong Liberty Art Prize 2023. It was exhibited in various locations including Japan, Finland, Taiwan and South Korea. It also appeared on a Japanese TV channel and Times Square billboard.

1997 The Treaty of Irrelevance

Autographs who were related to Treaty of Nanking. This work was exhibited in Leamington Spa Art Gallery & Museum.

Hong Kong Has Never Been a British Colony

This work is composed of 8 Hong Kong governors autographs.

Serve The People!

This work was currently shown on Artsy.

The Expiry Date of an Expiry Date

Leeds Grant Theatre has "Name a Seat" fundraising event for its 145 anniversary. I donated 145 pounds for naming a seat which is supposed to carve donor own name. I found that this plate is not permanent, it will be removed five years later, that means the plate will be expired. So I decided to put the expiry date of this plate instead of my name on the plate. The existence of this plate is purely for memorizing its own expiry date. This work is called "The Expiry Date of an Expiry Date".
