Aichi Hsu is currently completing her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Sculpture and Photography at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.  

​

     Aichi's work is inspired by the definition and “idea” of space and the void. Sculptures have a tendency to be viewed as a permanent entity, but she views sculptures like photography, as a physical isolation of time. She uses body and space as a comparison and how they coexist with each other by using sculpture to solidify an intimate moment that was once present similarly to the mechanism of photography. 

Besides working with space, Aichi also experiments with the absence of a body in space through manipulation of materials, as if human traces were left behind physically or figuratively. The more she interacts with the idea of freezing time, a growing resemblance occurs between her work and moment mark making along with a recurring theme in the photographs she captures. Aichi wants to hold a motion or a moment in time, not only two but also three-dimensionally.
