Biography
Born in 1963 in the Jilin province of Inner Mongolia, the second child in what would prove to be an artistically fruitful family, Hong exhibited creative talent early on. He developed skills privately, and upon high school graduation, had become quite skilled in painting, collage, and drawing. Hong is an artist whose impulse for creativity is rarely at rest. He is continually seeking new modes of expression and unusual contextual combinations of collage. Hong’s more recent work, all done in acrylic, has taken on a decidedly westernized appearance upon moving to the United States.
