Hyden

Hyden is a multidisciplinary artist whose work traverses the realms of painting, sculpture, and sound, rooted in a distinct exploration of memory, language, and the psychological spaces between abstraction and figuration. Drawing inspiration from everyday encounters and fleeting moments, Hyden’s practice delves into the fragments of personal and collective experience, recomposing them through layers of color, material, and gesture. Born in the Midwest and currently based in Los Angeles, Hyden has exhibited widely in both solo and group exhibitions, garnering critical attention for an intuitive approach that merges rigorous formal experimentation with subtle narrative undertones.

Their process often involves improvisation and erasure, resulting in pieces that evoke both familiarity and ambiguity, inviting viewers into contemplative, open-ended dialogues. Hyden’s evolving body of work reflects a persistent curiosity about perception, the elasticity of meaning, and the irreducible complexities of everyday life.
