In 2005, a collection of his photographs titled "Russel Wong: Photographs 1980 - 2005" was published by Epigram Books. This book was published in conjunction with Wong's solo exhibition at the Singapore Art Museum, the first for a Singaporean photographer. In the same year, Wong became the first and only photographer to be invited for the art residency at the Singapore Tyler Print Institute. His art works can be found in public and private collections, with his “Bamboo Forest” print going for a record US$40,000 at a recent Christie’s auction in Hong Kong.
