Jungil Hong's recent works are inhabited by birds and fantastical figures in brilliantly imaginative silkscreen prints and screenprint collages. Hong was included in "Wunderground: Providence, 1995 to the Present" at the Rhode
Island School of Design Museum in 2006 and her art was featured last summer in the 2007 DeCordova Annual Exhibition, a showcase of "some of the best, most innovative and gifted artists working in the region."
