Ye Ling Han attended the prestigious China Academy of Art in Hangzhou where he studied traditional mural painting and drawing. His academic training is evident in his many works on paper, which have been included in his recent exhibitions. After completing his studies, Ye Ling Han spent time living and working in Hangzhou and Shanghai where he further developed his artistic expression in this traditional medium. He recently relocated his studio to Beijing, near the 798 Arts District where he now works. Ye Ling Han's multi-media work has garnered great critical acclaim and attention both on home territory and overseas. More recently, he was included  in over 25 exhibitions such as the Minsheng Art Museum; MOCA Shanghai; Ben Brown Fine Arts in both London and Hong Kong; and the Today Art Museum in Beijing.

A boxed set of 4 fine bone china sinner plates by Cary Kwok (edition of 30)

Cary Kwok is a London and Beijing based artist well know for his exquisite ballpoint pen drawings. Born in 1975 and raised in Hong Kong, he moved to London to further his studies in the mid 90s spending six years at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design studying fashion at BA and MA levels. A fascination with fashion, period costumes, footwear and sexuality forms the nucleus of Kwok’s subject matter; the diversity of styles and street fashion of London, as well as period films, also influence him greatly. Subjects range from explicit male nudes to period portraits and still life.

And hairstyles and shoes are among his favoured subjects with work often subtly alluding to issues of race, ethnicity, culture, gender and sexual equality. Cary is represented by Herald St Gallery in London and has exhibited internationally in London, New York, Miami, Tokyo, Geneva and Zurich, including shows at Galerie Emanuel Perrotin, Miami; Attention to Detail curated by Chuck Close at FLAG Art Foundation, New York; Rude Britannia at the Tate Britain, London; Taro Nasu, Tokyo and Hauser & Wirth, Zurich.

A boxed set of 4 fine bone china sinner plates by Firenze Lai (edition of 30)

Firenze Lai says that she knows her studio of a few hundred square feet intimately; from the textures of its surfaces to the way the breeze blows into the room. The spaces depicted in her paintings are equally intimate. When curators seem to be at a loss for words to discuss troubled times, fear of containment, and the feeling of being completely enmeshed in a space, they turn to Lai's paintings, which have been shown as part of Para Site's A Journal of the Plague Year. Fear, ghosts, rebels. SARS, Leslie and the Hong Kong story (17 May–20 July 2013), and A Hundred Years of Shame—Songs of Resistance and Scenarios for Chinese Nations (6 March–17 May 2015). Further, Lai has shown work in international solo and group presentations, including Turbulence at Mirrored Gardens in Guangzhou (29 October–28 November 2015), the 10th Shanghai Biennale, Social Factory (23 November 2014–31 March 2015), the 2015 New Museum Triennial, Surround Audience (25 February–24 May 2015), and in Venice for the 57th Venice Biennale (13 May–26 November 2017). More recently, a selection of nine of Lai's paintings appear in Tai Kwun Contemporary's Contagious Cities: Far Away, Too Close (26 January–21 April 2019).
