Profile
Hong Huo was born in Beijing in 1994 and has been living and studying in the U.S. since 2011. Huo received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Kinetic Imaging from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2017, and she has received her Master of Fine Arts degree in the 4D area from University of Wisconsin-Madison in May 2022. Huo’s practice wanders between mix-media installation, experimental animation, and performance art. Her work has been selected to various film festivals and exhibitions nationally and internationally. Huo was a Kohler art fellow at Wisconsin Institute for Discovery during the 2021-2022 academic year. As a visual artist, an independent animator, graphic designer, and educator, Huo is constantly searching for a unique visual narrative about animation, material, body, and spirit through various mediums and process of experimentation. Huo believes, everything based on the essence of animation is to bring to life.
