About C.K. Koh

C.K. Koh (b. 1977, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) obtained a Bachelor of Art and Visual Communication from the University of Central England in 2007. Now a lecturer as well as a painter, C.K. has exhibited at numerous exhibitions across Southeast Asia. Inspired by popular culture, anime and childhood cartoons, C.K.'s paintings render a satirical view of iconic superheroes presented through characters with box heads. With these characters, he explores a variety of themes - hope in a not-so-perfect world, the idea of lying, good versus evil ,as well as his own personal experiences. Combined with contemporary concerns, these themes question current social, political and cultural environments.
