Swim in Schlachtensee

Artist of the Month: Hsu Yi-Ting

Hsu Yi-Ting’s paintings feel like memory made visible—air thick with twilight, the hush of water, the warmth of a northern open-air sauna. Based in Taipei and trained at Taipei National University of the Arts, Hsu explores the sensory intersections between body and landscape through her ongoing Bodyscape series.

Her fluid, collage-like canvases are built from fragments of lived experience—quiet observations, emotional undercurrents, and the shifting boundaries between self and environment. Layering abstraction with atmosphere, she paints as if recalling a place not just seen, but felt.

With each work, Hsu creates a space where memory, perception, and color quietly converge. Her upcoming solo exhibition with Gladys Lin Projects marks the fourth chapter in a journey that continues to expand the emotional topography of painting.
