She recalled the headmistress encouraged students to be highly independent, ironically, the girls turned out to be quite rude and casual. Such open and free environment left huge influence on her. When she was studying Fine Arts in Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), she was greatly both inspired and supported by the guest professor Wu Mali (吳瑪悧) from Taiwan to make her ever first formal performance artwork: Series of Women and Blood, No.1，1993.〔 In 2011, She decided to quit ''In Media HK'', suspended writing art criticism and creating works. With Two master’s degree, Leung still felt lacking of speciality. In order to comfort her aching for knowledge, she went back to CUHK, aimed for a Ph.D. degree in culture studies.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Leung Po Shan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
