특정한 매체에 국한되기보다, 표현하고자 하는 바를 가장 잘 구현하는 것에 주안을 두는 추수는 영상이나 설치, 조각, 회화 등 다양한 장르를 오가며 그만의 작품 세계를 구축해 나가고 있다. 추수는 특유의 예리하고 영민한 시선과 재치로 존재의 본질을 탐구한다.
추수는 서울 홍익대학교 미술대학에서 학사 학위를 취득했으며, 독일 슈투트가르트 국립조형예술대학교에서 석사 과정을 마쳤다. 작가는 슈투트가르트 쿤스트 뮤지엄(2021); 문화역 서울 284(2021); 경기도미술관(2022); 서울 하이트 컬렉션(2022); 뉴욕 헤셀 미술관(2023) 등 국내외 유수의 기관에서 개최된 단체전에 참여했으며, 진델핑엔 시립미술관(2020); 크라이오바 일렉트로 푸터레 갤러리(2021); 베를린 소마 아트스페이스 700(2022); 서울 (투게더)(투게더)(2022) 등 다양한 공간에서 개인전을 개최한 바 있다. 현재 베를린을 기반으로 활동 중이다.
