Hilde Mertens
HILDE MERTENS is an artist inspired by 3,000 years of Chinese calligraphy and culture. Her journey began with a rare opportunity to learn from a master, leading her to explore the deeper meanings behind traditional techniques. She embraces brushstrokes that flow from “no thinking”, open spaces and the constant change of the “ten thousand things”..
Hilde has showcased her work at The Hong Kong Club, Le Meridien-Cyberport, and Bloomberg as part of a GenAI art project. She looks forward to presenting "Letters from the Universe II" at the Belgian Days. Originally from Belgium, she now calls Hong Kong and Asia home, having worked in investment banking and management consulting across Beijing, Hong Kong, Singapore, and London. Hilde holds a Master's in Chinese & Economics, is an alumnus of Oxford Said Business School, and serves on the board of Lingnan University.
