Yu-Chun “Pony” Ma grew up drawing manga in Taipei City, Taiwan, before moving to New York City at age 24. After doodling through English lessons, he received his first formal art instruction at the Fashion Institute of Technology. There, Pony discovered acrylics and fell in love with pop surrealism. The year he graduated, Pony won the Curator’s Award at 440 Gallery in Brooklyn. Since his first solo show at Freddy’s Bar, Pony’s work has been shown at many galleries in California such as Thinkspace Projects, La Luz de Jesus, Modern Eden, and Giant Robot store, as well as in Philadelphia’s Arch Emeny gallery and Louisiana’s Baton Rouge Gallery. He has also shown his work internationally at Beinart Gallery in Australia, STRAAT Museum in Netherlands and Serect Fresh in Philippines. Pony’s work can be found in private collections from New York City to France to Australia.
