After a successful solo show early this year at the Canadian Pacific Gallery @ Port Moody Arts, and group shows at 2019 Britannia Art Gallery 2019, The Cultch / Eastside Culture Crawl 2019/2018, the mixed and multimedia artist will also open his studio at 89 Gore Avenue to the public. Private Appointments and Open Houses will commence mid-November, 2021 with current COVID-19 health and safety protocols.

His pieces explore, interpret and juxtapose select prose, iconography and landscapes from ancient civilizations and sacred places including Angkor Temples in Cambodia, Shaolin Temple in China, Machu Picchu in Peru and vast natural wonders of North America. The artworks celebrate the beautiful kinship and spiritual intelligence in the age of intuition. They invite the viewer to behold the majestic earth anew by remaining present, quieting their mind, and reflecting upon our human search for being.

A fourth-generation Chinese-Canadian, Garrett Andrew Chong was born in Armstrong, BC, in the early 60's and graduated with honours from ECUAD (Emily Carr University) in the mid 80's. His pieces capture the auras, energies and "unseen light" within spaces, forms and living beings.

Vancouver's Eastside Culture Crawl is a free annual 4-day visual arts festival in November that involves 400+ artists on Vancouver's Eastside opening their studio to the public.
