‘Beth Wong (1998, Hong Kong) Her work is a collection of poetic fragments and glimpses from her immediate environment. She is particularly attracted to the overlooked stories and materials from the city’s fringes. Central to her work are themes of desire and belonging, inspired by her desire for both stability and freedom.

Her artistic voice is expressed in soft gestures, minimalist aesthetics and nuanced storytelling. By combining painting with different media, she translates what she has observed to suggest an alternative interpretation of reality. She holds an MFA in Painting from the Frank Mohr Institute (2023) and a BA in Fine Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong (2019).”

The display window of the former Vapiano building on Nieuwe Markt has been temporarily designated as a pop-up art rental service in 2024. Every three weeks, a piece by a Groningen artist will be featured in the center window. This artwork is also available for purchase or rent through Kunstpunt’s art rental service.

Additionally, the window alternately shows work from the regular Art Rental Collection and the Studio Collection – art that comes directly from the studios of northern artists.
