‘FOUND’ – Hush Solo Show
‘FOUND’ – Hush Solo Show
Private View 19th November 2010
presented by White Walls Gallery (SF)
at ANGEL ORENSANZ FOUNDATION, FOR CONTEMPORARY ART, 172 Norfolk St., New York, NY 10002.
Found, marks Hush’s New York debut exhibition that deepens his exploration of the resulting emergences brought about by the evanescent quality of street art. Appreciating and identifying the remains of past tags as points of expression, the artist transitions this influence to his work that he refers to as “action painting” or “pure expressionism”. In his new collection, Hush remains influenced by the escape from the constraints of traditions, the contrasts between old and new, the past meeting the future and the fusion of Eastern and Western culture.
Some more impressions from Hush: Passing through
Hush at Shooting Gallery
Passing Through is a darker body of work visiting the concept of life and death.
This progression on the part of Hush reveals deeper, more mature paintings. Following
in suit with themes of the ephemeral, these works are inspired by Hushʼs frequent
travels and the graffiti he documents along the way. Each transient mark is evidence of
one action and one creative expression, despite its gradual degradation over time.
Hush has developed a process of layering and defacing his canvases to mimic years of
tags and wheat paste on a city wall. To begin, Hush covers the canvas with paint, graffiti
tags, and collaged photocopies from graphic novels and old comics. He then uses
blown up hand drawings of manga girls and screen prints them onto the canvas,
embracing the mediumʼs imperfections by masking off specific parts to be hand painted
in later. Hush paints and tags between screens to achieve a complex multilayered
texture, defacing the work to reference the weathered, transient quality of street art.
