Explore Huma Bhabha’s “Before The End” exhibition on view at Brooklyn Bridge Park—with bloombergconnects! 🎧
Situated in staggered positions along the Pier 3 Greenway Terrace at Brooklyn Bridge Park, Bhabha’s monumental sculptures conjure a sense of mystery and ambiguity. These expressive eight-foot-tall forms, titled Feel the Hammer, Member, Mr. Stone, and Nothing Falls, blend aesthetic, cultural, and psychological elements, probing the intersections of art, science fiction, horror, and mythology.
Based in Poughkeepsie, New York, Bhabha creates sculptures, drawings, and installations that reimagine the figure. She made the four bronze sculptures featured in Before The End by casting carved cork and skull fragments. The mysterious figures recall ancient effigies cut into tombstones. 💀
