Nick Dong graduated with a BFA in Mixed Medias and Paintings from Tung-Hai University and further acquired an MFA in Metalsmithing and Jewelry at the University of Oregon. After moving to Oakland, Dong established his own atelier: “studioDONG” in 2013 and started to exhibit both nationally and internationally. In 2012, Dong was enlisted as one of the 40 Under 40: Craft Futures artists by the Renwick Gallery of Smithsonian American Art Museum. Dong is more than just a trained metalsmith; he is a multi-disciplinary conceptual artist that incorporates science theories, cutting age technologies, and humanity into his work, with the aim to spark wonder and create transcending experiences.
