𝗕𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗲 reinvents our kindled definition of this old tradition of kite flying adventure. His oeuvre takes us down the memory lane in a renewed outtake and exciting jubilation yet with a touch of nostalgic appeal on the childhood fascination we once truly enjoyed.

He captures kite flight actions as if we were the first hand viewers on the very same site and scene. His photographic memory translates and transcend each detail on the canvas in an array of bold colors and vivid brushstrokes depicting such a joyful scene from the young, tender and old thereby creating an immense mood of what it feels like to be watching a successful kite flight unfold and even holding a kite on flight that which is untold.

In his thoughts, Kites are like letters, a poetry in motion, dishing out signatures to tempo and tune dictated by the wind itself. Kite flying is more like courting the wind to come fetch a beautiful kite to take a decent flight. Otherwise, it won't come flying up.

Such memories are a timeless classic and even priceless. It stirred a deep sense of nostalgia and joy, resonating with viewers' hearts and bringing back cherished childhood memories. Immortalizing each flight on canvasses serves as a concrete memento, a testament of history of ones very own self, expressing a space of warmth and jubilant childhood days, a proof of existence where the very same artist as Bong, thrives inspiration for the modern day generation to treasure,review, rekindle and enjoy.
