Mok Hing Ling (Chinese: 莫慶靈) is a contemporary Chinese artist known for her modern ink paintings. Her works often explore themes of nature, utilizing innovative techniques including the use of a sponge to mimic natural textures.
In 1973, Mok settled in Hong Kong and started her art career. She concentrated on Chinese ink wash painting under Ding Yanyong in the 1970s, and later Cheung Kwan-sut.
She has spent more than twenty years developing her Chinese ink painting skills. She appears in a fusion of many painting techniques that combines conventional painting techniques with modern materials and brushstrokes. The majority of her works are landscapes.
In 1981 and 1983, Mok participated in the Contemporary Hong Kong Art Biennial Exhibition. Additionally, her works were shown in other collaborative exhibits in Australia, Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia, China, and Russia. During the 1990s, her solo exhibitions started to launch in Hong Kong and Canada.
Her paintings were selected in the 2nd Contemporary Chinese Landscape Painting Exhibition in 1993 and "The 9th National Art Exhibition with a Showcase of Selected Works by Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwanese Artists". She also got an award of the third honor of "Youthful Artist in China" in 1994. Her paintings have also been collected by Taiwan Museum of Art, Jiangsu Provincial Art Museum, Hubei Provincial Museum of Art, He Xiangning Art Museum, and other investors. Mok was once a member of the Hong Kong Modern Ink Painting Society but she faded out in 2005.
