Olen Hsu Studio

Olen Hsu creates wheel-thrown forms in translucent porcelain, with muted matte or semi-matte surfaces drawn from early Chinese glazes. Weightedness and weightlessness, and tautness and languidness, alternate in his subtly altered shapes. Hsu is the recipient of grants from the New York State Council on the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Joan Mitchell Foundation, the John Michael Kohler Arts Center Arts/Industry Program, and a Turbulence Commission from New Radio and Performing Arts, Inc. His work has been shown at The Bronx Museum of the Arts, the InterSpace New Media Arts Center in Sofia, Bulgaria, James Nicholson Gallery in New York, P.S. 1 in New York, Ampersand International Arts in San Francisco, and Turbulence.org.
