Ah Chung a painter and a philosopher who is highly recognised by the local community as “Ah Chung”, the lowest form in the animal kingdom. Ah Chung’s real name is Yee-King Yim, born in Guangzhou, China in 1933. He started his distinguished career in art and gained popularity for his punchy political caricature in local newspapers in Hong Kong for over 20 years. In 1984, he left Hong Kong for the United States. He then adopted the modest alter ego to create a series of Chinese ink and color paintings and called himself “Ah Chung” (“insect”) because of his admiration for worms. He admires these little creatures for their great strength in survival even when facing with harsh environments.
The essence of Ah Chung’s style lies not only in his seemingly effortless brush strokes but also the way he enriched his paintings by adding lively and humorous depiction of his philosophy of life, a philosophy that brings us breathing space and food for thought in this busy world. The uniqueness of his works have won him many admirers and made him one of the most popular artists in Hong Kong.
Ah Chung suffered acute heart failure and died on August 11, 2019, at his Los Angeles home at age 85.
