About Hu Be
Considering artworks made along human history secluded nowadays into museums as images gifted of a still lively code, as a hacker that demonstrates the possibility to access into a site because of the challenge itself, the research of Hu Be is about the possibility of demonstrating the actuality of their source code executing a series of rotations of the painting demonstrating the possibility to access through an image considered finite to a new image and meaning turning it into the source for a new contemporary path.
His recent works, detached from the first series started five years ago called Hacking Biometrics, are not anymore focusing into the mathematical intervention on a pre-existing image but only in its hidden identity, the manipulation of the lively abstract code each image is made of.
Over the last five years, known to the public for his breathtaking detailed works on paper Wonder Lines, after the Future Pass Exhibition, a collective world tour that touched base at the 54th Biennale of Venice, the Wereld Museum of Rotterdam and the Fine Arts Museum of Taichung in Taiwan curated by Victoria Lu featuring artist like Murakami, Baseman, Chen Zhiguang, Chang Chia Ying, Thukrak and Tagra, Yoshitomo Nara and many others, Hu Be focused on his most intimate research, Hacking Biometrics.
At his first solo show in London of his latest works on the enquiry on the Self, Hu Be brings to the public L Maze, a ruthless, visionary body of work made of a gestural approach refined by vibrant textures using a highly immersive language of colours to explore the projection of the Self of a painting long forgotten giving it a complete new life and meaning.
