Rivian Cheung

Rivian Cheung is an artist based in Hong Kong whose practice focuses primarily on sculpture. She researches and explores the nature and potential of natural materials, frequently using the physical deconstruction of plants as a primary medium. In recent years she has adopted traditional paper-crafting techniques, seeking to incorporate folk-craft skills into sculptural practice. While manipulating various materials for personal expression, she also emphasizes showcasing their distinct characteristics. Through this exploration she aims to reveal and express the inherent language of the materials as well as their thematic potential as metaphors for our relationship with nature, time, mortality, and change. She received a Bachelor of Arts (Sculpture) from RMIT University (co-presented with Hong Kong Art School) in 2017 and was awarded the Mr Jerry Kwan Scholarship the same year. In addition to developing her own practice, she has worked on large-scale projects with artists such as Kingsley Ng (After the Deluge, 2018; Secret Garden, 2018) and Jaffa Lam (Hi! Houses, 2017). Cheung held her first solo exhibition "Uncertain Weight" in Hong Kong in 2025 and her first commercial gallery show "The Remains of Our Days" at Alisan Atelier Hong Kong in 2025.
