In addition to his inexhaustible style, Kwok held a solo multimedia art exhibition representing Hong Kong ''“Frogtopia-Hongkorucopia”'' (蛙托邦•鴻港浩搞筆鴉) at the 54th Venice Biennale in 2011.

Concurrently, during 1968 to 1973, he further studied in extramural courses at the Chinese University of Hong Kong as well as the University of Hong Kong. After his completion of the programmes, Kwok went to the Art students League of New York for further education(1980-1984).
