Sep Ten 1 opens Henry Hu's September series with a composition built on deliberate fragmentation. Geometric planes interrupt one another without resolution, creating a rhythm of collision and pause. The tonal range is wide — deep grounds give way to lighter, almost luminous passages that suggest atmosphere rather than solid form. Hu's mark-making here is controlled but never rigid, maintaining an underlying tension that keeps the eye moving across the surface in search of a centre that refuses to settle.

Hand-stretched on cotton canvas in our Berlin studio, this canvas print brings out the full warmth and tactile presence of Hu's abstract language. The canvas texture adds physical depth to each layered field of colour, making the composition feel alive at close range.
