Yek

BiographyOp artist YEK uses atmospheric abstraction to reach a new level of perspective. Constructing his distinctive style using airbrushed, concave canvases, YEK’s work envelops the viewer and generates a tranquil experience. Playing with color and light, many of the artist’s pieces gradually fade from one luminosity to another using reverse contrast. Sinuous lines that move throughout these optical illusions lead the viewer’s eye through YEK’s work.

Reflecting on his paintings, the artist stated, “They are sensual and stir up feelings. They are not in your face. These are good paintings for mellowing out.”

Born in Singapore, Yek Wong made the decision to drop his last name to remove his ethnicity from his work. YEK attended high school in Australia then immigrated to the United States to pursue his art career. After moving to Las Vegas, YEK studied art at the University of Nevada and currently lives and works in Las Vegas.
