HONG HONG
Central Standard is proud to present This Is the World in Which I Move Uninvited: The Days of No Day, My Earth of No Earth, the first solo exhibition in Oklahoma by Hong Hong and her largest survey to date in the region. The exhibition opens Thursday, December 10, 2026, at 11 N. Cheyenne Ave. in the Tulsa Arts District, and continues through January 30, 2027.
Hong Hong works across image-making and language through painting, papermaking, moving image, and performance. Her projects engage the forces that make and unmake a place, from weather and light to migration and the body, treating geography as both material and history. The exhibition brings together recent works, many of them made in Tulsa and formed outdoors, where rain, wind and sunlight alter the image as it comes into being.
Hong is a 2024–26 Tulsa Artist Fellow and the recipient of a 2025 Guggenheim Fellowship in Visual Arts, a 2026 Foundation for Contemporary Arts Creative Research Grant and a 2023 United States Artists Fellowship in Craft.
The exhibition and programming is made possible through the generous support of FC Tulsa, the Lesher Family Foundation, the Tulsa Artist Fellowship, Laura & Bill Bennison, Jordan DesChamps-Braly, John & Margarita Gaberino, Shiloh & Patrick Kantz, Gail & Kip Richards, Tim Roberts, and Rod & Erin Yancy - Oath, with special thanks to Wendy & Chuck Garrett.
