Sound with Fog Brook Hsu - The Frame NYC

Brook Hsu, Sound with Fog, 2022

Brook Hsu (b. 1987) lives and works in New York and Wyoming. Hsu received her BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute in 2010 and her MFA from Yale University in 2016. Hsu deploys and weaves the autobiographical and the mythopoetic into paintings using an array of materials, including ink, oil paint, industrial carpets, and off-cuts of ready-made lumber. The sources for Hsu’s imagery come from her own observations, sometimes arising from art history, film and literature. Working across painting, drawing, sculpture and writing, her works aim to question how we define representation today, producing abstract and figurative works that employ a host of signs and motifs, recounting stories of love, pain and humor. Hsu says of her practice, ‘I seek to understand what we value in life by asking how we value the world.’

Her work is part of the collections of:

Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris
Yan Du Collection, London
Boros Collection, Berlin
Philara Collection, Düsseldorf
X Museum, Beijing
Long Museum, Shanghai.
