Eva Kwong was born in Hong Kong, living there until her family moved to New York when she was a teenager. She received a B.F.A. at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in Providence, Rhode Island and an M.F.A. at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia, Pensylvania. Eva is known for her compelling, colorful, and sensuous forms which combine art, science, and nature. Her fascination with microscopic biology has caused many of her to pieces resemble bacteria, diatoms, and cells. Kwong has taught at many schools, including the University of Akron, Cleveland Institute of Art, Ohio University, and Kent State University.
