Hung Keung (2005 Fellow) is a digital media artist involved in the creative and research aspects of film, video and digital new media art. He focuses on exploring human limitations through interactive and moving digital images, and ventures into extending these limitations with technology. In his latest installations and performances, Hung further enquires about the intricate relationship between the viewers and these moving images. Hung is the first Chinese artist to receive the Special Mention Interactive CD-ROM Award presented by the International New Media Arts Festival in Greece, and Special Award for New Media in Croatia. He has won the Gold Award at the Hong Kong Independent Short Film & Video Award, the Hong Kong Arts Development Awards—Best Artist (Media Arts) in 2008, and the 2009 Achievement Award presented by the Hong Kong Museum of Art.

Works of Otto Li (2016 Fellow) focus on exploring the nexus between virtuality and reality owing to his years of experience as a concept artist in the CGI animation industry. By reconstructing images with collective data in the forms of sculpture, virtual modeling, digital drawings and interactive installation, he embraces the possibilities of interpreting and re-interpreting visual data and translation between various media. He explores cities, landscapes and environments in different parts of the world and seized the opportunity to collect sounds for his ongoing series of “Soundscape”. The series has been met with great popularity, with artworks created on a commission basis for international corporations, shown in multiple public locations including Hong Kong and London, and acquired for private and public collections worldwide. His works have been presented in Saatchi Gallery (London), CAFA Art Museum (Beijing), MoCA Shanghai, and the Hong Kong Museum of Art.

Au has been awarded Alexandre Yersin Excellence Scholarship, Nokia Arts Awards (2000), Hong Kong Arts Development Awards—Young Artists (Visual Arts) in 2013.

He has participated in Hong Kong Pavilion of the 15th International Architecture Exhibition of Biennale di Venezia, 7th Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism/Architecture, 15th WRO Media Art Biennale.
