Alfred Cheng
Internationally acclaimed Thread Artist
Alfred Cheng is a Hong Kong-based thread artist who has honed his craft through self-study, mastering the technique of weaving a single, unbroken strand of thread on canvas to convey contemporary visions.
At the heart of Alfred's philosophy lies the conviction that ultimate well-being and serenity can only be achieved through the interconnectedness of all beings.
In his perspective, boundaries are fluid and nothing is absolute. This vision frees him to explore the infinite possibilities of interconnectedness, giving rise to his distinctive approach to "thread painting".
Through the skilled manipulation of this deceptively simple technique, Alfred conveys complex emotions and ideas with a unique aesthetic, revealing a profound understanding of the power of simplicity.

“The ultimate tranquility and purity can only be achieved when all things in the world”
As I stepped into K11 ARTUS, I felt as though I had entered a grand, futuristic masterpiece infused with warmth. The architectural design and interior decor bespoke a profound understanding of spatial aesthetics.
Within this residence, I experienced not only a seamless fusion of architecture and art but also a deep emotional connection among individuals, evoking a sense of belonging akin to being at home.
The sense of community and creativity that filled the space inspired my artistic expression, allowing me to immerse myself in an atmosphere teeming with endless possibilities and explore the full depths of my imagination.
This artwork is a rich mosaic from countless interconnected threads, each representing a unique individual. The underlying concept stems from the emotional bonds between people, as their stories intertwine and emotions are shared, forming a collective heart.
