Asif Hoque's painting Music of the sun has joined the permanent collection of the Institute of Contemporary art in Miami. Part of his solo exhibition at the gallery, Before Sunrise, this work depicts a Bengal Tiger leaping forth into the sea. The Bengal Tiger is the national symbol of Bangladesh, the country of Hoque's heritage, as well as a recurring motif the artist employs to represent himself.
