Leung Mee Ping height - How tall is Leung Mee Ping?

Leung received her BFA from L’École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and her MFA from California Institute of the Arts, and Ph.D at Chinese University of Hong Kong (Religious & Cultural Studies Department). She is an Associate Professor of Visual Culture, Space Saving Creativity, Traditional Handicraft, Installation, Public art and Community Art, at Hong Kong Baptist University.

Leung designed a mobile app called ‘’Star Pupas’’. The reason for designing a mobile app was that Leung observed a phenomenon that people were so obsessed with their smart phones. Scanning the image of stars from the sky, visitors can "name" the stars and leave messages to friends. The images of stars and the messages were projected on the tent. The more people will participate, the brighter the inside of the tent will be. They can even share the starlight and what they think and feel at the moment of "naming" the stars through the mobile app, to light up others’ lives with love and care.

‘’ Leung is good at making creation from real life experience and inspiration.’’ Editors from Unwire.hk said so.

‘’Leung Mee Ping’s artistic practice is essentially conceptual and investigative, and one of its strongest markers is her relentless and enduring curiousity [sic] . Leung’s mixed-media installation Made In Hong Kong is like a conceptual onion: peel away one layer of meaning and association only to find multiple layers underneath.’’ commented by Valerie C Doran, who is an independent curator, critic and translator in the field of Chinese contemporary art with a special interest in cultural cross-currents and comparative art theory.

Leung enrolled in ‘’Fleeting Light’’, which was a large scale media arts exhibition presented by The Hong Kong Arts Development Council. The exhibition was held outside Hong Kong Science Museum during 14 September to 28 September 2014.

Leung Mee Ping’s Pearl River Delta Series I: Made in Hong Kong was held at Osage gallery from 1 March to 1 April 2014. It was mixed-media installation with performative elements.

"I Miss Fanta" is one of the most famous and well-known artworks in Hong Kong. It was a piece of artwork presented by Leung Mee Ping in the contemporary art exhibition held by West Kowloon Cultural District Authority. The installation located in Man Ming Lane sitting-out area in Yau Ma Tei, Hong Kong, during 15 May – 10 June 2012.

"Out of place (2005-2011)" is a series of video installation which feature different places (including Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Taipei, Beijing, Shanghi, Ski Lanka and Macau). Leung followed a number of individuals wondering aimlessly through the streets of varying locales, attempting to discover new psychgeographical routes through the mapping of purposeless.

Leung has long been renowned in creating works which raise people's concern over social environment. She used human hair as corporeal material in art. "Memorise the Future (1998-2002)" is an installation composed of over 10 thousand children shoes made of human hair (4 to 5 inches for each). Being collected from over one hundred nations, the mixed and undistinguished human hair symbolize transcended regional boundaries and the blur of individuality.

After she came back in Hong Kong in 1994, she held her first solo exhibition "Mixed-Media Work by LEUNG MEE PING" in Fringe Club. Besides, she worked as an art editor of the Hong Kong Economic Times (hket, a financial daily in Hong Kong). She was also one of the founding members of Para Site which were founded in early 1996 as an artist-run space. In 1998, she emigrated to USA and obtained her MFA from California Institute of Arts in 2000.

Leung moved out when she was very young after her parents separated. Despite this, she has always been close to her mother and sisters, whom support her and are the main theme of Leung's artworks. After working in a book store for two years, Leung saved up and got into École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts. In 1983, Leung Mee Ping left Hong Kong and began her art study in Paris. She had learnt to paint in abstract and expressionist styles. Before she graduated from L’ École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts a Paris in 1991, she started exploring different materials to create art works. Because of her friends’ death, "Elsewhere (1991-2014)" was initiated at that time. It is a mixed media installation consisting of thousands of tea bags sewn together. The repetitive action of sewing teabags symbolize the artist's means of meditative contemplation on being and death. She won Premier prix Rocheron Award for this work in 1991. A part from tea bags, various objects such as quail eggs, photos, tiles etc. were used in Leung's mixed media art and installation works.
