Cheung received his Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts (Major in Photography) from RMIT University. After graduation, he established an art studio "2M07" with his classmates. He often explores issues related to the urban environment of Hong Kong as his inspiration of artworks.
He lives in To Kwa Wan since he was born, yet, due to urban renewal plans, this place has been facelifted which becomes a place he is not familiar with. His recent artwork tries to use new perspectives to review To Kwa Wan, so as to reexamine the relationship between himself and his hometown.
張氏畢業於澳洲皇家墨爾本理工大學純藝術文學士課程,主修攝影。畢業後他與同窗成立「2M07」工作室繼續創作,以本土獨有文化為藝術創作理念,嘲諷戲謔現今齷齪社會現象。而他的個人作品以探討人類在城市生活的空間為主。
在土瓜灣成長的他,希望在重建和新鐵路線通車為這個地方帶來巨變之時,透過他的作品以不同的角度去記下此時這刻的土瓜灣。所以他近年的作品大多圍繞這個社區,並從中探討他和他的「家鄉」之關係。
張亦勤的作品曾於香港、法國巴黎、中國平遙等地展出。2019 年,他於PMQ元創坊舉行首次個人展覽 <即將扺達>。2021年,他因為失業投身外賣員的工作,同時創作了一系列有關外送行業的作品,在同年於聯展 <溫感不安>中展出,並入圍 <第七屆香港人權藝術獎>。他亦曾在香港藝術中心的聯繫下受餐廳 <J.A.M> 委託創作一系列作品,於2021年間在餐廳內展示。
