Tong expresses his feelings and understanding on the value and meaning of everyday life by depicting the female in the appearance of a portrait, or to place the female together with the male under the same environment, is to establish an interactive relationship between his personal view and the objective view of the male. In Tong’s works therefore is the attainment of an ultimate goal of artistic creation: freed of the issues of harmony in aesthetics, art is converted directly into the spirit of human life, and from that into art. The purpose of Tong’s works is a criticism to the change of the inner mind of people. His paintings show not only the difference in identity, but also criticize how people are differentiated by society.
