Aquatic science defines my career, while art shapes my life. Seamlessly merging these two realms, I redefined ARTQUATICA, formerly known as AyerMatahari. Specializing in designing water features such as tropical garden ponds and self-sustaining recreational lakes, we leverage my expertise and experience. By blending artistic vision with knowledge of aquatic ecology, I create practical water garden designs that harmonize with nature and its aquatic environments for the benefit of all.

17 November 2025. Enjoying the site and a wonderful trip to Bali with my wife. This is my closing project in Ubud, Bali.
This is my final home garden pond project at Bukit Damansara in Kuala Lumpur, completed in 2025. My journey began in 1984, and now it is time to close a career I have cherished and move on. The next phase of my life will focus on art, giving my talent a chance to grow. Ng Kok Hong. 20 Feb 2026.
