A local artist is exhibiting some of his paintings to share his views on life and politics in Hong Kong.

Sculptor and painter Choi Cho-kwong gets inspiration for his art from his life experiences.

Having lived in Hong Kong since he was a child, Choi feels strongly about the city's vibrancy.

Some of his paintings portray the city's nightlife.

'Hong Kong's nightlife is dizzying. I tried to convey the desires of nocturnal fun-seekers through my paintings,' said the 50-year-old.

Politics also feature prominently in the exhibition, with several paintings portraying what the artist thinks of local politicians and politics.
