Yu Hong, Islands of the Mind
Text by Greg Hilty, Daniel S. Palmer
A painter of epic scenes and intimate moments
Yu Hong (born 1966) constructs modern-day fables and complex, allegorical compositions by channelling historical, narrative-driven art through a fiercely contemporary lens. For her first solo exhibition in London, inspired by Arnold Böcklin’s Island of the Dead (1880-1901), this body of work expands on paintings unveiled in Yu Hong’s solo exhibition at the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2023 and her first major European show during the Venice Biennale, organised by The Asian Art Initiative of the Guggenheim.
