Guides To A Better Soul

Guides To A Better Soul

Touch Gallery is delighted to announce its second solo exhibition featuring renowned local artist Ant Ngai Wing Lam, Hong Kong-based artist celebrated for her surreal and introspective paintings. Ngai's work prominently features koi fish-headed characters, inspired by her dreams and childhood experiences with pet fish. These hybrids symbolize her exploration of themes such as relationships, identity, and ambiguity. The speechless faces of the koi fish characters conceal inner emotions, reflecting the complexities of human connections. Continuing the narrative of her previous "Fish Man" storybook series, this exhibition will showcase an array of character oil paintings and sculptures, inviting audiences to delve into a world of extraordinary tales.


The "Fish Man" series (2008-present) is a storybook collection created by Lam, narrating the lives of koi-headed characters, male and female fishmen, and their friends residing in a place. The world of Fish Man encompasses various genres including fantasy, drama, fairy tale, mystery, adventure, and romance. The world of Fish Man explores numerous themes and includes many cultural meanings and references. Major themes in the series include supernatural, self-awareness, anger and forgiveness, mistaken, madness, loneliness, friendship and love.


Ngai Wing Lam's artwork captures the tension between reality and fantasy, and we sincerely invite you to immerse yourself in this endless story, creating your own unique and personal narrative.
