URI professor presents ‘Spirit of the Place and People’ art exhibit – Rhody Today

University of Rhode Island professor and artist Hongbing Tang is presenting her solo exhibition, 'Spirit of the Place and People,' at URI's Green Hall. The show features her watercolor paintings, which explore themes of memory, cultural heritage, and the layered histories of specific locations, and will be on view through April 30.

The exhibition highlights the intersection of Tang's roles as a practicing artist, landscape architect, and educator. It provides a learning opportunity for URI students and the community, showcasing watercolor technique and Chinese cultural perspectives, while underscoring the university's support for faculty artistic practice.
