Dorothy Kwok

hi everyone!!

my name is dorothy and i am a penultimate history of art student, with a particular interest in post-modernist art theory as well as the intersection between technology and art!

i believe i would be a fitting candidate as the business development officer because:

  • i have experience in liaising with international galleries and artists as part of faciliating submissions for a large-scale art fair in Hong Kong;
  • i also have previous experience in hosting and organizing events, such as UCL Chinese Society Variety Show, Christmas Ball, Orientation Camp and Debate Competitions for Hong Kong Joint School Economics Association;
  • i have a passion for design and love to make decks and presentations which can be used for reaching out to external speakers and organizations!

i would love to get more involved in Art Business society and bring more opportunities to everyone interested in the business side of art!

Sheng Ying Ng

My name is Sheng Ying Ng, I am a second year History of Art student, I am standing for the position because I believe in broadening the society's reach to more students as well as to continue hosting leading professionals in the industry who provide valuable information on the fast moving art world.

I believe, presently, with such strides in blockchain and web3.0, more can be done relating to subjects such as art and technology, compliance issues surrounding art (art law), and the developing investment models surrounding art (art finance) aside from present events which are more related to the secondary market and auction houses. A society art business review might also be a viable way to platform student views. 

I have interned at an award-winning commercial gallery in Singapore, assisting with operations and conducting curatorial research. I have been a frequent contributor to the art and film section of Era Journal and Pi Media among other articles. I have experience working at a crypto analytics company as a marketing intern and have been working on a podcast series with London Blockchain Labs. I have also previously co-chaired a model UN debate on the revitalization of the contemporary arts scene and the preservation of traditional arts in Singapore. 

I intend on using my current contacts and all of my academic and professional experience to help art business society expand as well as maintain its current quality of events. 

Thanks for reading till the end :)
