Tong Chong once said that his works attempted to express his exploration of social culture and human existence in recent years, returning to the intrinsic quality of human nature, and human roles in contemporary society, including perspectives on sex, the human being, society, and ancestral heritage. In a strict sense, this is not merely an artistic pursuit of creativity but a target for personal growth and development. To cultivate such a sentiment and vision is never to be solely dependent upon reading or painting but involves many personal experiences of the artist and active participation in society. Hence, time and opportunity play a crucial role. Gaining perception from life and rendering it in his works through persistent effort are often the lifelong pursuit of an artist. (James Chu)
