Tom Hoitsma: Sculptural Thinking in Paint

Artist Meet & Greet: paintings exploring resilience through fracture, rebuilding, and the unstoppable force of nature.

Unchained.Art Contemporary Gallery invites you to an Artist Meet & Greet with Tom Hoitsma.

During his solo exhibition we had to cancel his event but Hoitsma part of the annual invitational 'favorite pieces: the artist' edit' is coming to Austin not only to talk about his personal favorite but also the ‘The Unknowable World’. A new body of work in which Hoitsma extends the structural intelligence of his sculptural practice into paint, where form loosens and gesture becomes a carrier of memory and motion.

‘The Unknowable World’ traces an evolution in Hoitsma’s practice, where sculptural thinking remains the foundation, while painting becomes the primary site of exploration. Resilience emerges not as a fixed outcome, but as an ongoing process shaped by memory, material, and transformation.

Join us and chat with the artist why this specific piece is essential and special in his practice.

With this piece, Unchained.Art Contemporary Gallery presents Hoitsma at a moment of expansion.
