CURRENT EXHIBITION

KWAK KYUNG-TAE

A Solo Show

12th September - 8th November

This exhibition is our first solo presentation of Korean artist Kwak Kyung-tae’s ceramic vessels and tableware.

A fascination with large Onggi vessels and the rough simplicity of Korean slipware led Kwak Kyung-tae to develop his own voice in clay. He works exclusively in 옹기 (Onggi) and 분청 (Buncheong), taking his inspiration from the traditions of the Korean peninsula of his birth and applying them in a modern context. His work is resonant of nature's forms and structures through wheel thrown and altered work, often including spontaneous marks and gestural brushwork on large pots.
