Bio

Sophia Hotung is a Eurasian writer and illustrator from Hong Kong.  She is known for creating digital art that looks like fine art and mixed media, as seen in her The Hong Konger and Choreopolis collections.

Her work has exhibited at Wyndham Social, the Affordable Art Fair, Digital Art Fair Asia, Oi Ling Antiques, and has been featured in the New York Times, Tatler Asia, the South China Morning Post, and Sotheby’s magazine.

Sophia was recently awarded the South China Morning Post’s Spirit of Hong Kong Culture Award, named one of TimeOut Hong Kong’s five Future Shapers, and was named for two consecutive years as one of three finalists in Hong Kong’s American Chamber of Commerce’s Young Changemaker, Women of Influence Awards.

 

Sophia’s work is based in Hong Kong through her company Pangolin Society. Due to physical limitations from chronic disabilities, she works mostly from bed in San Francisco, while her team executes boots-on-the-ground operation in her hometown of Hong Kong.
