The late Lum Weng Kong was a distinguished contemporary Chinese artist, recognised not only for his artistic prowess but also for his significant roles in education and cultural organisations. Serving as the Vice President of the Malaysia Calligraphy and Chinese Painting Alliance, Lum Weng Kong cultivated a distinctive style integrating both Chinese ink painting technique and the vibrant, lively expressionism of Western art.
He was the Academic Advisor at the Institute of Neo Art, Sabah Art Institute and a member of the Honorary Committee of the Nanjing Seal Society in China. His artistic journey was reflected through a series of exhibitions - from the "Tea & Zen" solo exhibition in 1996 to the contemporary exploration of "Aura by Lum Weng Kong" in 2012, his artistic odyssey was marked by rich thematic diversity and a skilful mastery of brushwork.
