COME INSIDE is a Hong Kong based art collective formed by Mak Ying-tung and Wong Kaying. Since Mak graduated from the School of Creative Media - City University of Hong Kong and Wong graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, They both are striving to be artists in the past three years. In 2016, their art journey has come to a new page as they are fed up with the formalized system and depressed atmosphere of their society (Hong Kong). They have decided to attack the world with COME INSIDE.
COME INSIDE welcomes everyone to join their new created, fancy and funny world, and wish everyone can experience the ART ORGASM from the bottom of their inner-self. The energetic members want to surprise people, bring the BOOM refreshing feelings to the public, test the limits of creativity and break the rules, creating guerilla art in diverse spaces and occasions, from communities to institutions, from street to white cubes. Their first attempt is doing all kinds of part-time jobs in Hong Kong, to support the lowincome life of being artists in this city.
We have worked as hawkers, waitresses, tutors, sales,actresses, cleaning ladies, and more to come!
