Biography
Chloe Ho (b. 1987, California, USA) is a Hong Kong based international artist. Born in 1987, she belongs to a new generation of talented artists. She completed her studies in studio art at Mills College in California under Liu Hung (Chinese – American contemporary artist) and Moira Roth (art historian and critic).
The artist explores her multicultural background in her work, combining elements of East and West. Ho always maintains an eye for the unexpected, yet aesthetically familiar as she focuses on the nature of existence, man’s relation to nature and his place in the universe. Ho engages and encourages the viewer to respond, interpret and spiritually connect to her art.
Her art makes a bold, yet personal statement, through the use of both traditional and contemporary mediums that include Chinese ink, coffee, spray paint, coloured ink, acrylics and new technologies.
Her many successful solo shows include those at 3812 Gallery in London and Hong Kong. Following Ho’s critically acclaimed first London exhibition, “Unconfined Illumination”, held in autumn 2019 at 3812 Gallery, London, Ashmolean Museum and the New Hall Art Collection of University of Cambridge have both acquired her artworks for their permanent collections. Her works were also exhibited at Forbes Gallery in New York and Joyce Gallery in Shanghai. Her milestone exhibition “Ascendence” was a memorable success at the Hong Kong Arts Centre in 2017. She has also been featured in recognised group shows in the San Francisco Bay Area, Beijing and at INK NOW Art Expo in Taipei. Her works are held by private collectors in England, France, Switzerland, Singapore, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Mainland China and America (including Washington, New York, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sonoma and Florida).
She has participated in many artistic collaborations. In 2018, Ho’s work was collected as part of Macau’s MGM Chairman’s Collection and featured at the MGM Cotai Hotel and Villas. Her work was further exhibited at the MGM Collector’s Lounge at Art Basel Hong Kong in 2018. In 2019, her signature blue work Ocean’s Vase was selected by Rosewood Hong Kong as part of the artistic visual branding for the hotel.
Ho was given the Most Inspiring Woman Award by Marié Claire Magazine in 2014. She was the first Hong Kong artist honoured as Martell Artist of the Year in 2017. Her work “Fleur” was successfully offered at the Modern Art Sales in Sotheby’s Spring Auction in Hong Kong (2019) and the work “Midnight Blooms” was successfully auctioned by Sotheby’s in 2020. She has been featured in Christie’s Magazine (2019) and many other notable publications.
